Upgrade Fix

Automating a Ruby on Rails upgrade involves running an audit-plan-fix cycle to apply version pins, resolve gem dependencies, update code, and iteratively verify tests. The process uses commands like /audit, /plan, /fix, and /upgrade for controlled execution.

Resolving gem compatibility issues during a Rails upgrade requires auditing current dependencies, planning version pins, and applying fixes iteratively. The workflow verifies changes using RSpec and RuboCop to ensure gem resolution does not break existing functionality.

Yes, this automated upgrade workflow supports both Ruby and Rails version updates. It handles version pins, gem resolution, and code changes simultaneously, allowing you to target explicit Ruby versions and optional Rails versions during the upgrade cycle.

Verifying code changes when upgrading Rails configuration files is done iteratively using RSpec and RuboCop. The workflow applies fixes and runs these checks repeatedly to ensure the upgraded configuration maintains test compliance and code style standards.

Limitations of automating Rails upgrades include relying on iterative test verification to catch issues, meaning broken RSpec or RuboCop checks can stall the process. It requires explicit target versions and cannot resolve unfixable gem conflicts without manual intervention.
