What People Say About Guard

Here's how Guard has helped others:


"For dev and devops, I use Vim, TMux and Guard. Productivity is through the roof - no more "typing in" commands. I just open a file, edit and hit save - Guard does everything else (building, testing, deploying, etc.)."

Cezary Baginski cezary@chronomantic.net


"I've been a user of Guard from the moment I discovered it, it really improved the ease with which I could test. Guard's tests are also a boon to developers who want to see a good canonical example of testing. I often just browse the files to learn something new. Also the Guard maintainers are awesome, and will answer questions from new users."

Daniël W. Crompton (@webhat) crompton@oplerno.com


"Like the previous testimonial from Daniël, I've been using Guard for testing from the moment I discovered it. I use it with Minitest for doing Test-Driven Development (TDD) with Guard running the associated test file automatically upon saving. It's just a great workflow. A heartfelt 'thank you!' to the Guard creators and maintainers."

Jon Atack (@jonatack)


"guard-rspec greatly reduces the time from code change to test feedback, providing a fluid development experience."
