How to start in TDD with Ruby?

I want to know your recomendations to begin with TDD in Ruby (not Rails), so that's it, I know a little about what TDD is, but I'm looking to which tool to use for this, do you know any tutorial for this?

I learned Ruby using Ruby koans, and they are an awesome way to learn Ruby with TDD. But never ignore RSPEC.

Read this: How to get started on TDD with Ruby on Rails? This covers Rails, but the idea is same. TDD.

Have you seen rspec? It's behavior-driven (which is ever so slightly different from test-driven) but the main point is that you write your tests first and it constantly runs them and provides feedback (using autospec in a separate window) while you write your code.
