I tend not to use rjs much, but what I suspect you are looking for is  
the response to contain a particular snippet of Javascript. So, it  
might look sort of like:

it "should send Javascript to reset the form" do
   post :action_that_resets_the_form
   response.should have_text(/$(''form'').reset()/)
end

Does this sound like what you are looking for?

Thank you for your help. I still need a bit of help on calling have_text
correctly.

I tried your version and it failed. Then I tried a couple of variations of
this:

response.should
have_text(/$(''Form'').reset(\"tag_form\")/) but I got
this
error message:

expected /$(''Form'').reset(\"tag_form\")/, got
"Element.update(\"tag_list\",
\"\");\nElement.toggle(\"add_tag\");\nElement.toggle(\"new_tag\");\nForm.reset(\"tag_form\");"

Also tried:

response.should have_text(/Form.reset(\"tag_form\")/)  That also
failed. Any
ideas?

What you are looking for is the string:

Form.reset("tag_form")

Ignore the escaping backslashes in the output from the matcher. To  
tell have_text that it can appear anyplace in the body of the  
response, use the regex /Form.reset("tag_form")/ in your call to  
have_text.

So, this should work:

response.should have_text(/Form.reset("tag_form")/)

Hope this works for you. Oh, and you might want to branch out and make  
sure that the content-type is text/javascript.
