Trunksters,
I just added a couple of methods to ActionView::Base in Spec::Rails
(as of r2136) that lets you do this in view examples:
describe ''/things/index.html.erb'' do
it "should render _thing with a collection of things" do
assigns[:things] = things = [Object.new]
template.expect_render(:partial => ''thing'', :collection
=> things)
render ''/things/index.html.erb''
end
end
This solves two big problems - mocking nested partials and mocking
:object and :collection in partials.
template.expect_render wraps part of ''spec/mocks'', but not the
whole
framework - so we get the expectation matching benefit w/o conflicting
with other mock frameworks that ppl might choose to use.
There is also template.stub_render(opts) in case you just want to stub
the render w/o verification.
I would LOVE it if some of you would try this method out and provide
feedback before we release it. Please feel to ask any questions about
this on this list.
Thanks,
David
Hi, I''d like to stub out a partial call but not sure how.
I tried something like this
it "should render partial foo" do
template.stub_render("bar/foo")
render "/layouts/bar.html.erb"
response.should render("bar/foo")
end
but the partial is still getting called

oops, my bad
this works (asserts pass, and partial not called)
template.expect_render(:partial => ''bar/foo'')
render "/layouts/bar.html.erb"
so does this:
template.stub_render(:partial => ''bar/foo'')
render "/layouts/bar.html.erb"
neither case seems to try to render the partial
