I''m doing a redirect in one of my controller actions and somehow I can''t spec it, see this pastie: http://pastie.caboo.se/53120. When following the link from a browser I''m being redirected to the right page. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I wanted to use ARTS to add RJS in a behaviour driven way to my application, but I''m having some trouble asserting a replace_html with a partial. I''ve created a pastie (http://pastie.caboo.se/60694) which contains the RJS I want to spec, the spec which I already wrote and its failure message. I''m currently using RSpec-0.9.2

Why can''t I use the RESTful route helpers in my specs? In my controller I''m doing a redirect: redirect_to list_path(:id => @item.list_id) Now when I write: controller.should_redirect_to list_path(:id => 2) I''m getting the following error: NoMethodError in ''POST on /lists/2/items should redirect to index on succesful POST'' You have a nil object

Hello! I''m pretty new to unit testing, and have only been using RSpec for a few weeks. I found that for my controller specs, my setup methods were getting very long building mocks/stubs for all the model objects I needed to work with. I''ve started creating helpers like the following for each of my models. The "min_" methods are short for "minimum", and

Hi, I''m new to rspec and wanted to translate some of my unit tests into rspecs. Unfortunately my first test fails with "Mysql not loaded". My application is running fine and can access the database. I''d appreciate any help, so I can get started. Tino -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Many posts on this list are about using RSpec with Rails and that''s the way I''m also using RSpec all the time. Unfortunately there isn''t that much info about using RSpec for standalone Ruby projects. I must admit I''m really having a hard time writing the very first example(s) for a fresh standalone Ruby project. I haven''t really got a clue where to

I really would like to know how people are using the Story and Example runner to write their software.It would be great to get some direction on it, because I think I''m missing some points. Taking the outside-in approach in thought: At first we write a high-level customer-facing story, this story fails. Then we start using mocks at object level to use them as a design tool, and so we

Announcing... JobsOnRails! I''m creating on a Ruby on Rails oriented job site and will be launching in the next few weeks. It''s a Rails-centric place for developers and employers to get in touch with a minimum of hassle. For now, I have a short outline of my ideas and an email signup form on the live site at http://www.jobsonrails.com. The site is coming along nicely and

Hi all ! I just started writing specs on a new project. I would just like to validate that this is the way you would write it. I know about mocks, stubs and expectations. I don''t think this is a problem for me. My question really boils down to: def index @projects = current_user.projects.active end My spec needs to return the proxy, no ? Here''s my code: context "A

I''m trying to write specs for a plugin I''m developing named audit_fu, and I''m running into a problem which I can''t get past it. I''ve got the same specs setup in the main rails app, and everything works fine there, it''s just running the plugin specs that I''m having a problem with. My setup is: - edge rails - edge rspec (in

I tend to write a fresh description block for every change in the parameters for that specific action, because I hate conditionals in the example describtion, e.g.: describe SomeController, "handling GET /path/with/param/3" do it "should do this" it "should not do this if" it "should still do that in both cases" end Seperate description blocks keep

Hi guys, I''ve recently been digging into ActiveResource and the REST principle in edge rails. I want to push things even further, since about everyone in the world is doing SOAP (Yahoo, Google, Flickr) and more important, .NET and the upcoming release of Microsoft Navision/Dynamics, I''m trying to enhance ActiveResource in a way that it would make me possible to for example, do a

Hello everybody, I''ve been using RSpec as a tool to create web applications for some time now, in Rails, and using plain Ruby with WEBrick as well. The tool suits my needs and the story runner is great. Now there are things that aren''t solvable on the web, you''ll need a _real_ desktop application for those problems. So I''ve toyed a bit around with various GUI
