Hi, I have installed Rails 3 on my local machine. Let''s say I wan''t to create a new project but in version 2.3.5, can I do that?

Hi, I am following the guide here: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/contributing_to_ruby_on_rails.html I have an ubuntu 11.04 VM setup, installed rvm, and ruby (ruby 1.8.7 (2011-06-30 patchlevel 352) [x86_64-linux]). Pulled down the rails from github and created a 3.0 branch: $ git branch --track 3-0-stable origin/3-0-stable $ git checkout 3-0-stable I can run the non-db tests ok, all pass

How can I safely mock a singleton without the mocked method living on outside the scope of the test method? I''ve run into this problem with mocking methods on globals (gasp!) in the past by doing something like def mock_my_global original = $my_global $my_global.expects(:foo).returns(''bar'') yield $my_global = original end Is there something similar I

Hello, Is there some Rails 3.0.6 ETA? I am asking because there are some security holes in Rails 3.0.3, which are currently available in Fedora 15. So is it right time to update Rails to 3.0.5 or is it worth of waiting for 3.0.6? Vit -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.

...ctly what things are appropriate to test at that level (this might be exacerbated by the fact that I''ve never really used integration testing that much). A full example of testing a Rails controller would be extremely useful to me. Thanks, Jon -- Jonathan Leighton, Web Developer http://jonathanleighton.com/

Hi, Is there or could there be any way to test that a method calls "super"? Thanks -- Jonathan Leighton, Web Developer http://jonathanleighton.com/

Hey, we''re currently using shoulda (http://dev.thoughtbot.com/ shoulda/) on a project and I saw some things that would be really nice to see in rspec, namely the should_ methods, and especially the should_be_restful method. Do these go against the rspec goals at all? Or could an ambitious programmer go to town implementing these for rspec_on_rails? Nathan Sutton fowlduck at

We''ve been working with the ParameterMatchers (so cool!) but I don''t see a way to insure a method is called with no arguments. I imagined something like: user = mock(''User'') user.expects(:friends).with(nothing) Anyone run into this?

Hi all, I think CSFR protection broke in rails 2.3.11. As in: it''s turned off now. I tried this in rails 2.3.10 and in 2.3.11 and 2.3.11 seems broken. >rails csrftest >cd csrftest >script/generate scaffold post title:string >rake db:migrate now I visit /posts/new in my browser, use firebug to delete or change the authenticity token, and submit the form. rails 2.3.11: all

...unit test, class variables do not get "reloaded" between tests like everything else. Is there any way to make them "reload" (I would have though given the nature of tests that would be the default behaviour). Many Thanks -- Jonathan Leighton http://turnipspatch.com/ | http://jonathanleighton.com/ | http://digital-proof.org/

So, now that we''re using Mongrel and not the horrid FCGI, do I really need these files in my Rails apps: dispatch.fcgi dispatch.cgi .htaccess ?? The .htaccess file has rules for rewriting that look FCGI based. For Mongrel, I do my Apache re-writing in my config file, right? is there a reason to include these files at this point? Hunter

Hi all, I had troubles while running tests on Active Record: bundle exec rake test_sqlite3 /Users/oscardelben/code/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/hash/keys.rb:70:in `block in assert_valid_keys'': Unknown key: extend (ArgumentError) This is because some models used by tests are using the extend option which now seems deprecated. Should related tests be

If so, shouldn''t it be documented in the Rails API? Or is there a better way to allow class reloading of my files under lib. I mean, I know about config.autoload_paths, but I want to be explicit about my requires. I just want to be able to reload then on each request when I''m working on them. require_dependency seems to do just that but I''m worried since it is not

Hello! At first I posted this in rubyonrails-talk, but no one there was able to tell me if this is a bug or not (I got only suggestion for workaround). As this looks like 3.1 regression that breaks existing 3.0.10 code I decided to post this here in addition. I''ve upgraded to Rails 3.1 (from 3.0.10), ran my test suite and found this issue: class Trade < ActiveRecord::Base

Hi all, My team and I are finding ourselves a little in the dark about the "CSRF Protection Bypass in Ruby on Rails" vulnerability that was announced yesterday - http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2011/2/8/csrf-protection-bypass-in-ruby-on-rails 1. Where is the complete Advisory? The Impact section is very unclear. Looking at the comment in the 2.3 patch mentions "Flash animations and

I''m very new to Ruby and to Rails. I''m coming from PHP and CakePHP. I would like to create a base model from which all other models will inherit from. I have done this: class AppModel < ActiveRecord::Base end and class Post < AppModel end I''m getting the following error: Table ''blog_development.app_models'' doesn''t exist My

I just ran across a weird glitch (IMHO) in find_or_create. The arguments passed to it are *not* added to the conditions for the ''first'' part. This is odd, given that it''s intended to replace find_or_create_by_* methods, which *did* use the specified values as conditions. I''m unsure on whether this behavior is entirely undesirable, but it''s definitely

...teracts with Rails? If so, I gave it a try under lighttpd and still had the problem, any idea why? I''m really just looking to understand the issue better as I hate to walk away from a problem without fully comprehending it :) Thanks, -- Jonathan Leighton, Web Developer Portfolio: http://jonathanleighton.com/ Personal: http://turnipspatch.com/
