Hi guys,
I''m building a application using subdomains feature like basecamp. To
create the correct link reference I use a with_subdomain function whch
take the subdmain name and create a subdomain name like
subdomain.mydomain.com.
So to teste that a account information view have the link to right
domain I wrote the test above:
describe SubdomainController do
render_views
it "should have a link to subdomain" do
post :create, :subdomain => @attr
response.should have_selector(''a'', :href =>
with_subdomain(''test''), :content =>
with_subdomain(''test''))
end
end
But I get the error message below:
NoMethodError:
undefined method `with_subdomain'' for
#<RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup::Nested_5::Nested_2::Nested_2:0x8ebf124>
And I included the url_helper that has the function on my
ApplicationController like this:
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
include UrlHelper
end
So, if you have any idea what is wrong, where I miss, please help me.
Thanks,

So, in the context of that spec, ''with_subdomain'' is not defined -- the fact that you''ve included it in your ApplicationController class doesn''t affect the code in the spec. As an aside, is this example intended to test that the ''with_subdomain'' method is working correctly? Because it looks like you''re specifying that "the output of with_subdomain should equal the output of with_subdomain", which will always pass, even if with_subdomain is actually outputting the wrong thing. That''s fine if you''re speccing with_subdomain elsewhere (i.e. in a helper spec), but I thought it was worth pointing out. Chris
Hi Chris, Thank you for your help, i inclued the UrlHelper on my spec_helper file and it worked. Yes the intent is just check with the link is created. I have other test to asset that with_subdomain build the correct path to subdomain.
