I am having a lot of trouble figure out how to mock one my controller
methods. I was hoping someone might be able to help me.
---------------
Controller:
def create
....
@objective = current_user.objectives.create(params[:objective])
....
end
RSpec:
it "should create a new objective and return new id" do
obj = Objective.plan(:user_id => @user.id)
post :create, :objective => obj
response.should be_success
json = ActiveSupport::JSON.decode(response.body)
json["id"].should == assigns[:objective].id
end
-----------
As you can see, I am not mocking current_user.objectives.create so I
have to look at assigns[:objective] to test that things are working.
How would I go about mocking it?
Thanks in advance for all your help.
