rspec users - Mar 2007 - mocking/stubbing newbie questions

I''m new to mocking and stubbing.  Can someone help me out with the  
following?  I don''t exactly know why this spec is failing:

describe "GET /users/1/terms" do
   controller_name :terms

   setup do
     @user = mock_model(User)
     User.stub!(:find).and_return(@user)
   end

   def do_get
     get :index, :user_id => 1
   end

   it "should find all terms associated with the user" do
     User.should_receive(:find).with("1")
   end
end


the controller code:

class TermsController < ApplicationController
   def index
     User.find(1)
   end
end


the spec results:

1)
Spec::Mocks::MockExpectationError in ''GET /users/1/terms should find  
all terms associated with the user''
User expected :find with ("1") once, but received it 0 times
./spec/controllers/terms_controller_spec.rb:43:
./script/rails_spec_server:21:in `run''
./script/rails_spec_server:42:


Thanks for any help in advance,

Scott

you forgot to actually call your do_get method:

it "should find all terms associated with the user" do
   User.should_receive(:find).with("1")
   do_get
end

-- tim

What a dumb move.  I need to sleep more.

Thanks for your help.
