Hi, just wondering why it makes sense to verify routing in an
AC::TestCase test.
class XX < ActionController::TestCase
it "returns an empty cart" do
post :create
...
end
end
If I have no routing set up:
Failure/Error: post :create, :format => "json"
No route matches {:controller=>"carts",
:action=>"create"}
Since I only wanna test my controller action why would I need routing?
Any hints on this, or is this just a relict that can be removed?
Nick

There would be no way to invoke the action either from a test or from a browser. Colin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.

That''s why there are route tests, right?
