# Watch This Run Repeatedly
|
|
|
|
I usually reach for a quick bash for loop when I want to run a particular
|
|
process a bunch of times in a row. The `watch` command is another way to
|
|
run a process repeatedly.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
watch rspec spec/some/test.rb
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The default is 2 seconds in between subsequent executions of the command.
|
|
The period can be changed with the `-n` flag though:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
watch -n 2 rspec spec/some/test.rb
|
|
```
