I''m using the acts_as_authenticated plug-in for my app. Now I need to get my functional tests to work properly. I have not written functional tests before so I''m unsure how to utilize setup so that all of my tests can use the login. My tests pass if I put login_as :user inside of each test, but that''s clearly not DRY. Can I add something to my test_helper.rb file or

Hello I''m using the ''act_as_authenticated'' plugin to implement a small and simple authentication system in my app. Everything is working just fine and the world is a better place to live in. The plugin creates a ActiveRecord observer in order to send the newly registered user a confirmation e-mail. Per the API docs [1], one sho...

but the model isn''t the right place to send mail from. That just seems like pretty bad coupling, generating emails from within the model. Or is that not a problem? On top of that, these emails need to contain links back to my site...which is a bit of a pain in ActionMailer, but I found directions on http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoUseUrlHelpersWithActionMailer however I

I want to update a form that contains logically grouped fields that are contained across multiple models. My models are: user [act_as_authenticated] profile [belongs to user] newsletter [belongs to user] Is there a way that I can setup my view so that in the controller I can write self.current_user = params[:user] self.current_user.save instead of having to specify each value individually for the separate models? If that is not possible is...

Hi All, I''ve been a ASP.NET developer for the last few years and consider it to be a pretty productive environment to work with. However, the object-relational mapping (ActiveRecord) and simplicity of the Rails framework and Ruby in general really appeals to me. .NET currently doesn''t have something like Rails'' ORM - atleast not out-of-the-box. Here''s my

Hi all, I have a question about this method in my User model: # Returns true for the (saved) user called "admin" def is_the_administrator true if save and name == "admin" end The method returns true if the user''s name is admin. However, I only want to return true if the state of the object is "saved", so I call the save method first. I''m

Well, after many hours of tinkering and internet browsing I just can''t get Fast CGI to work with Rails and Apache 1.3 on FreeBSD 5.4 Normal CGI works fine, but as soon as I enable FastCGI in .htaccess I get the message: Application error Rails application failed to start properly Here''s what I''ve done so far: - I''ve installed all the necessary software for

Hello, One of my functional tests looks like this: def test_presence_of_free_text profile = Profile.find :first post :edit, {:id => profile.id} assert_select "textarea", :name => "record[free_text_ec]" end The test results in a failure, because the element cannot be found. I''m pretty sure the element should be there, and I''ve tried
