Rails - Aug 2006 - How to test a controller action which is passed params from a form?

here''s my code for an action (add_user) in my login_controller, as well
as the form that calls add_user:
http://rafb.net/paste/results/3Paw8119.html

So in my test of this controller, I want to test add_user.  So I need
to pass it the name and password.  How do I do this?

I know this doesn''t work:
process ''add_user'', ''name'' =>
''Ben'', ''password'' =>
''password''


Thanks!
Ben Lisbakken

from your posted source, your input field names would be generated by rails as

user[name]
user[password]
user[password_confirmation]

so try

process ''add_user'', { ''user[name]'' =>
''Bob'', ''user[password]'' =>
''password'', ''user[password_confirmation]''
=> ''password'' }
