Answer 1

starting with rspec 2 you can use the following:

# in spec/spec_helper.rb
RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.filter_run :focus => true
  config.run_all_when_everything_filtered = true
end

# in spec/any_spec.rb
describe "something" do
  it "does something", :focus => true do
    # ....
  end
end
