What is the best way to learn RSpec and Rails3?
I have written JUnit/NUnit test codes, but writing RSpec for Rails3 application is difficult for me.
Any recommendation would be appreciated.
I highly recommend the Ruby on Rails Tutorial Book.
I don't know whether this way is best but it helped me to learn RSpec.
First understand the Architecture of rails components.You can start
here
Then you have the documentation on how to RSpec the rails controller,model,view here.

I an looking to delve a little deeper into Ruby On Rails and am interested in seeking more knowledge when it comes to methods. I am aware of the rails api documentation, but not being familiar with a lot of the terminology or where the specific methods can be used it is to big to be useful at this stage (hope that makes sense).
What I was looking for is any particular methods I should pay attention too, more like most commonly used, just so I can practice with them for now, then once I have grasped a better understanding then i can look at more.
Any resources or documentation that has helped anyone, please feel free to let me know
Thanks in advance
Some resources maybe help you:
Rails Tutorial
Rails Guide and about API
Some videos Rails Cast
Read book Rails 3 way
Objects On Rails
To be honest, you should probably be asking this question on Reddit or in the RoR talk group.. the reason being is that there is likely no single correct answer. Check this page out:
http://www.reddit.com/r/rails/comments/ys318/what_to_read_after_hartls_rails_tutorial/
As the title in the URI suggests, you should definitely start with Rails Tutorial by Michael Hartl.

The official website contains so simple tutorials. Are there some good websites like ASP.NET MVC 3 from Microsoft that provide everything from scratch about Yii.
do you checkout the guide?. it's pretty straightforward.
Personal this is a great set of tutorials to learn Yii from.
http://www.larryullman.com/series/learning-the-yii-framework/
Follow the guide as mentioned, then check out the Blog Tutorial
i learned it on the blog tutorial, took me about half an hour to learn that way. I also suggest making a real life app with it, then you learn a lot more, since you look for ways to solve the problem that come, and questioning is the best way to learn without a doubt

I've seen some great in-browser tutorials and/or practice exercises in other languages. To name a few:
Ruby: Tryruby.org
JS: Codeacademy.com
Rails: railsforzombies.com
I've also seen great Java algorithm challenges at codingbat.com.
I haven't found anything similar for learning C, or Objective-C (which is my real goal). Any suggestions?
go ahead with http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/cocoa/conceptual/objectivec/objc.pdf
for Objective-C. It works great on my browser- opens up the pdf.

I've been learning PHP OOP for quite a while and I've loved getting to know the language, finding solutions to problems and so forth.
Although, quite often, people keep recommending different frameworks for me to start using. I can imagine using a framework is more efficient, time effective and so forth but It seems to take quite a lot of the fun out of things.
My next challenge is to create a fully functional tutorial website and blog.
My question is, do you use a PHP framework and should I really start using one?
I was also debating whether to use CodeIgniter or CakePHP...

Does anyone know of any good, detailed guides for capistrano and deploying rails applications? I'm interested in learning all the different functionality rather than just following a tutorial without really understanding what's happening.
Github made the great tutorial howto setup capistrano.
You can reference to the Capistrano Handbook and Getting start guide.
I don't know if it could be what you are looking for, but I just wrote how to make Rails 3.2, Nginx and Capistrano work http://www.lifeofadev.eu/posts/deploy-rails-3-2-with-capistrano
I've written this one, that at some point I might move off this gist:
https://gist.github.com/2161449
I agree there is/was a lack. I figured stuff out painfully, and then tried to write it up in a guide for others (and myself to refer back to)
