mocha developer - Oct 2006 - Mocha and SimplyHelpful

Hi,

I''m getting a conflict between the Mocha plugin and the Rails  
SimplyHelpful plugin.

For some reason the dom_id method from SimplyHelpful is not being  
found in my views when the Mocha plugin is installed. The dom_id  
method if used in the controller works properly.

This is the error I get when running the tests:

1) Error:
test_truth(HmmControllerTest):
ActionView::TemplateError: undefined method `dom_id'' for
#<#<Class:
0x3a529ec>:0x3a529c4>
     On line #2 of app/views/hmm/index.rhtml

     1: <%= @car_dom_id %>
     2: <%= dom_id(@car) %>


Here''s my controller:

class HmmController < ApplicationController
   def index
     @car = Car.find(1)
     @car_dom_id = dom_id(@car)
   end
end

Here''s my view:

#app/views/hmm/index.rhtml
<%= @car_dom_id %>
<%= dom_id(@car) %>

Here''s my test:

require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper''
require ''hmm_controller''

# Re-raise errors caught by the controller.
class HmmController; def rescue_action(e) raise e end; end

class HmmControllerTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
   fixtures :cars

   def setup
     @controller = HmmController.new
     @request    = ActionController::TestRequest.new
     @response   = ActionController::TestResponse.new
   end

   # Replace this with your real tests.
   def test_truth
     get :index
     assert_equal "car_1", assigns(:car_dom_id)
   end
end


This is just an empty rails project running Edge Rails, i.e. rake  
rails:freeze:edge with the Mocha plugin (./script/plugin install  
svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/mocha/trunk) and SimplyHelpful plugin (./ 
script/plugin install simply_helpful) installed.


Anyone run into this sort of thing before?


Thanks,

Jonathan

If I comment out the require ''test_help'' line in mocha/init.rb
everything works.

Is this line necessary for anything?

Hmm. I think it was there in order that
''active_record/fixtures'' got
required before Mocha started messing with ''test/unit''. The
recent changes
in HEAD mean that Mocha integrates with ''test/unit'' in a
different way,
which probably doesn''t need that require ''test_help''
statement. So I think
it''s ok to remove it.

Well done for figuring out what the problem was - it still seems a bit
obscure though!

I''ll try to remove it in HEAD as soon as I can.
