Using rspec formatter as tracking tool
BDD correctly applied means you do not change the code unless you have an example spec first. So if you add the output of an rspec run to your repository, it should be possible to track your progress based on its changes.
Just look at your trac timeline and see which lines are added to your spec output. In an ideal situation each modified line would match some changes you made to the code.
To make this work I created my own formatter which does not have a summary. No need to track the changes in finish time, although changes in the number of examples may still be of use.
The systems works nicely if you modify examples in existing rspec files. If you add a new rspec file, the order of the output can change and shows some “false positives” in the diff.
