After listening to this weeks Ruby on Rails podcast where Geoffrey Grosenbach interviewed Bruce Tate, it got me to thinking about why Ruby on Rails appeals to me. For me as a Java person, the real appeal of Ruby lies in Rails and here’s why:
This project contains custom Hibernate and JRuby extensions to let Hibernate work directly with org.jruby.RubyObject objects. That means that the Hibernate session accepts and returns plain old Ruby objects (no intermediary Java domain classes are needed).

Buildr is a build system for Java applications in Ruby Maven compatible * A simple way to specify projects, and build large projects out of smaller sub-projects. * Pre-canned tasks that require the least amount of configuration, keeping the build script DRY and simple. * Compiling, copying and filtering resources, JUnit/TestNG test cases, APT source code generation, Javadoc etc * A dependency mechanism that only builds what has changed since the last release. * A drop-in replacement for Maven 2.0, Buildr uses the same file layout, artifact specifications, local and remote repositories. * All your Ant tasks belong to us! Anything you can do with Ant, you can do with Buildr. * No overhead for building “plugins” or configuration. Just write new tasks or functions. * Buildr is Ruby all the way down. No one-off task is too demanding when you write code using variables, functions and objects. * Simple to upgrade to new versions. * fast
Concordion is an open source tool for writing
automated acceptance tests in Java*
* There are also versions for .NET, Python, and Ruby. [More details]
“Lets you write business tests that don't assume a particular implementation.”
Key Features
*
Powerful, yet simple to use Concordion integrates directly with JUnit.
*
Highly readable tests Concordion acceptance tests are so readable they can double up as system documentation. And, since the tests are linked to the system, you know the documentation is always up-to-date.
*
Separates tests from implementation Tests that include a lot of implementation detail lock you into that implementation. Concordion helps you to document the logic and behaviour of your system in a way that does not
