I''m getting pretty far with functional testing and have run into a
situation where I''m checking a method that ''stamps''
db data into form
fields on a PDF file.
I have 6 such methods in my ''ClientsController'' and half the
tests
fail...
def test_rhba_signoff_form
login_with_administrator
get :rhba_signoff_form, :id => 3
assert_response 302
end
the failure is I get response 200 (which is a failure). test.log also
clearly shows a 200 result.
so I fired up ''webrick -p 7000 -e test'' and used a browser and
was able
to get these stamped PDF''s without a problem. (obviously not a 200)
3 of these same methods test without error but 3 methods test
consistently with this error and there''s very little difference between
them except the data fields so I made sure that when I tested against
webrick, I used the same ''id => 3'' record and
there''s no problem.
I would really like to include this in my testing...is there some
better/more reliable way to test for a response which isn''t a template
response but rather a
send_file "tmp/SOME.pdf", :type => "application/pdf",
:disposition =>
''inline''
That clearly delivers except in testing?

Hi Craig, ----- Original Message ----- Craig White wrote:> the failure is I get response 200 (which is a failure).i don''t mean to "butt in" to your conversation with Fredrick, but what do you mean by "response 200 (which is a failure)". If you mean that you were expecting a 302 and your test failed because you got a 200 which is ''successful'', OK. Otherwise...> so I fired up ''webrick -p 7000 -e test'' and used > a browser and was able to get these stamped PDF''s > without a problem.Exactly. A 200 means the action succeeded.
