rspec users - Mar 2008 - Multiple should sentences one lambda

Hi all,
i have one problem. I''m just trying to get the
restful_authentication plugin work, but i discovered
that its rspec tests are not working, because of this:

it ''requires password confirmation'' do
  lambda do
    u = Factory.create_user(:password_confirmation =>
nil)
    u.errors.on(:password_confirmation).should_not
be_nil
  end.should_not change(User, :count)
end

where in the user model i have a simple:

validates_presence_of     :password_confirmation

Autotest continues to tell me that:

ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid in ''User requires password
confirmation''
Validation failed: Password confirmation can''t be
blank

The question is: how can i test both the presence of
error and the change on count?

Thanks in advance,
Roberto.

These are two different behaviours and should, IMO, have two separate examples:

    it ''does not save a user with nil password_confirmation''
do
     lambda do
       Factory.create_user(:password_confirmation => nil)
     end.should_not change(User, :count)
    end

    it ''reports an error for nil password_confirmation'' do
       u = Factory.create_user(:password_confirmation => nil)
       u.should have(1).error_on(:password_confirmation)
    end
  end

HTH,
David
