RubyMine 2020.1 released

RubyMine 2020.1 is here! Visit the What’s New page to learn about all the details.
Here are some of the biggest highlights:

Improved navigation allows you to seamlessly jump between Rails entities and a DB schema, as well as between parent and child methods.

Navigation improvements

Tests

Test creation has become easier with the ability to create a new test for any class. RubyMine will replicate the directory structure based on the path to the test subject.

Creating tests

LightEdit mode

The new LightEdit mode comes in handy when you need to quickly edit a file. It operates a lot faster than the standard mode because it opens your files without loading a project.

LightEdit mode

Terminal

You can now split terminal sessions vertically or horizontally to run them side by side. Invoke the context menu from the terminal to create, navigate, and close a split terminal session.

Split terminal sessions

See the release notes for the full list of closed tickets, and let us know if you encounter any issues.

RubyMine Plans to Retire Support for Rails 3 and Other Outdated Features

Dear all, As some of you already know, RubyMine 2022.1 was shipped without support for Rails 3.

However, we didn’t communicate this decision in a clear and timely manner, which resulted in reasonable questions from some of our users who still use Rails 3. We would like to apologize for that and assure
