Just wondering if anyone else thinks that ''response.should be_success'' is potentially misleading. If you''re writing a spec for an action that is failing in some way it can still have a status 200. So while the HTTP request was technically successful, something in the action was not. Perhaps something like ''response.should have_success_status''? Steve

1) Right now this is just testing a successful response. However, since I've gone and created a Post via FactoryGirl... how can I test the @post.id equals one of the id's being returned by the get: index json? describe Api::V1::PostsController do context 'Post' do before(:each) do @post = FactoryGirl.create(:post) end context '#index' do

I''m wondering: Does it make more sense to add on successful? as an alias for success? in ActionController:TestRequest? I keep getting these two mixed up in my specs and was wondering if it would be helpful to anyone as a small patch to rspec. Best, Scott

Dear list, In the app we are making we have a rout something like this: map.resources :projects do |projects| projects.resources :pages, :controller =>"Wiki::Pages", :path_prefix => "/projects/:project_id/ wiki", :name_prefix => "project_wiki_" end But I can''t get RSpec(I''m very new to it) to accept this. It keeps throwing errors:

I am new Rspec and just started by generating a new controller on Rails 3. It generates some Rspec tests by default. I have a question about how to make them pass though. As it stands, I see this test in my terminal" > 1) BuildingsController GET ''show'' > should be successful > Failure/Error: get ''show'' > No route matches

One thing that is bothering me about my controller specs is that sometimes I end up with a number of examples that are the same except for the example name. The reason that this happens is that I''ve expressed all the expected behavior with should_receive. While this does more or less work as intended it doesn''t feel right. As an example, let''s say I''m writing

Hello, I''m working with scaffold generated controller test code for handling GET requests. Address is the model being tested. Address belongs_to Company, Company has_many addresses.

Thank you in advance for your help. I am relatively new to both Rails and Rspec and I am hoping for some insight from some experienced veterans. Right now I am using Rspec for code that has already been written so that additional functionality can be developed using the BDD method. My problem shows up when I try to spec controllers that are behind the login system. Each page checks for the

I wanted to use "integrate_views" as Ryan explains in his RailsCast #71 (http://railscasts.com/episodes/71) ...but I can''t get it to work: the view code in not executed I looked everywhere but I can''t understand what I am doing wrong. Here is what I did: I created a new application from scratch (Rails 2.0.2), added rspec and rspec_on_rails plugins, and run

Hey everyone. I really stuck on testing a nested controller. I''m trying to make a request using get and afterwards checking the response by response.should ... My routes.rb looks like this: map.resources :writers do |writers| writers.resources :notes end In my notes_controller_spec.rb def do_get writer_id = 1 note_id = 1 get note_path(writer_id, note_id) end it "should show

I''ve written a story and I run into a snag. I''ve written the create_forum method and told it to set the id to 1 but when it creates the forum the id is autoincremented. My forums table is empty but the id keeps incrementing the newest record on creation. When I run the story it comes out as something like 59 which fails my story because I''m asking it to look at /forums/1

Hi all I just recently started to use rspec and I''m having a problem using multple scenarios in one story.

Here I am, trying to learn TDD and BDD. Getting start, most simple case, and the world is falling apart: My test code: it "should respond with success" do puts ''hi'' # get :new # response.should be_success end My stack trace: $ rspec spec "controller: nil" F Failures: 1) VideosController new exposes request and response before and

Fyi, I made the following renames: * RailsExample -> RailsExampleGroup * FunctionalExample -> FunctionalExampleGroup * ControllerExample -> ControllerExampleGroup * ViewExample -> ViewExampleGroup * HelperExample -> HelperExampleGroup * ModelExample -> ModelExampleGroup This was done to keep the naming consistent with ExampleGroup.

I have following resource defined in my config/routes.rb (the model name is contrived) map.resources :foo_items, :as => :foo that I originally generated with rspec_scaffold: ruby script/generate rspec_scaffold foo_item but when I use the :as attribute in resources to make the URI path be ''/foo'' instead of ''/foo_items'' the default/generated controller
