rspec users - Aug 2007 - Do the :attributes and :content matchers work

[Rails plugin 1.0.5]


Hi,
I am looking for some guidance.
When working on a partial which looks like this

    <div class="bug" style="width: 100%;" />

I have some examples which should fail - I think - but do not:

     it   '' should fail'' do
       response.should have_tag( ''div.bug'', :content =>
''There is no
content!'' )
     end

     it '' should fail since there is no bug attribute with a value of
"here"'' do
       response.should have_tag( ''div'', :attributes =>
{:bug => "here"} )
       response.should have_tag( ''div'', :attributes =>
{:bug => "here",
:another_bug => ''there''} )
     end

I am calling render :partial => ''/bug/div'' in the before
:each block.

As I said I would expect this to fail but it does not.

I am trying this because in the

   
<my_app>/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails/spec/rails/dsl/view_spec_spec.rb

file there is an example

  describe "A view that includes a partial using :collection and
:spacer_template", :behaviour_type => :view  do

    before(:each) do
      render "view_spec/partial_collection_including_template"
    end

    it "should render the partial w/ spacer_tamplate" do
      response.should have_tag(''div'', :content =>
''Alice'')
      response.should have_tag(''hr'', :attributes =>{:id
=> "spacer"})
      response.should have_tag(''div'', :content =>
''Bob'')
    end

  end

which does just this.

Can anyone help please ?

Cheers!
sinclair

have_tag wraps the assert_select API. Basically, your hash (:content
=> ...) is being ignored. What you want to say is:

response.should have_tag(''div.bug'', ''There is no
content!'')

That should fail. Please report back.

Thanks,

Ugh. Those are holdovers from the old API and are only passing because
:content and :attributes are being ignored. I''m updating them in rspec
trunk to correctly reflect the API.
