similar to: Using integrate_views for all controller specs

describe MyController do integrate_views describe "A common base senario" do it "no longer integrates views" do be_careful end end end integrate_views affects an attribute in the class formed by the describe factory method. The second describe generates its own class, so integrate_views is OFF at that level. I''ve already spent far, far too much

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

The ability to choose a mocking framework is great as I prefer mocha, but I am have problems. On my controller specs, I am forced to ''integrate_views'' as the following code below shows you, the mocking of views is rspec specific. See stub! versus mocha''s stub unless block_given? unless integrate_views?

I have a problem with a mismatch between RSpec Rails and the actual behavior when using GetText, and would be glad for suggestions how to best solve this. When using GetText a failure is reported for the following simplified specification: describe SamplesController, "when requesting /samples" do it "should render index " do get ''index''

I find myself doing this kind of thing a lot in Controller Specs: @vacancy = mock_model(Vacancy) @vacancy.stub!(:reference) @vacancy.stub!(:title) @vacancy.stub!(:created_at) @vacancy.stub!(:updated_at) @vacancy.stub!(:body) @vacancy.stub!(:contract) @vacancy.stub!(:location) @vacancy.stub!(:salary) @vacancy.stub!(:benefits)

I am taking over a code base and am trying to run the tests. I am somewhat new to RSpec so this might be a trivial problem. Basically I can tell that the fixtures are not getting loaded. All 100 tests fail with a similar error. But I don''t know why. Below is the code, with my narrative with *** before it... Can you see anything or give me a clue where to look. So far I am coming up

Hi all, I know that in general, view and controller tests should be isolated, such that controller specs don''t test views etc. However, I think I''ve run into a situation that might be an exception. My controller uses render_to_string to produce a chunk of HTML that it passes to a model to be processed. The controller then redirects the user to a different page. The

Hi everybody, 1) Does anybody have full working example of how to test partial templates? 2) What the correct place to test partials: controller or view spec? If controller correct place, should I use integrate_views? 3) Is it true that expect_render is deprecated and I have to use should_receive(:render) 4) How to test that partial''s locals hash is correct? Thx -------------- next

Hi all, I''m trying to run a Story Runner integration test that uploads a file through Attachment-fu. I''ve tried various ways of specifying the file data, from custom mocks: class MockFile < Struct.new (:original_filename, :read, :content_type); end fdata = MockFile.new "test_upload.txt", "Test Upload", "text/plain" to

I posted a ticket to lighthouse: http://rspec.lighthouseapp.com/projects/5645-rspec/tickets/595-deprecate-integrate_views Please put your comments and thoughts there, as that is the best place for that discussion. I wanted to make it more "visible" so it could get wide community participation in case there are folks who absolutely feel integrate_views is necessary (considering that we

Getting this error. I have the treetop, polyglot, and rspec libraries in the load_path (not installed as a gem). Any ideas? What defines the register method? /home/jvandyk/dev/web/wpn_rails/../../rcommon/lib/test/treetop/lib/treetop.rb:16: undefined method `register'' for Polyglot:Module (NoMethodError) from

Hi all, I feel like I''m missing something really easy and I''m just not seeing it. I''m using the restful_authentication plugin and have a User model. Uesr has_many :things and Thing belongs_to :user. That''s it. I did a "script/generate rspec_scaffold thing" to generate all the necessary bits. The "rake db:migrate" to create the db. At

(oops, accidentally sent this to the rspec-devel list, sorry about that) Could someone help me spec out these Rails controller methods? I don''t know where to get started, especially with the transaction stuff. Or, if anyone else could suggest ways I could improve the code, that would be great as well. Puzzle has_one Media. Both are AR model objects. class PuzzlesController <

Given this code (which renders rjs), I''m faced with the fixture- driven way of spec-ing or mocking. How the heck to you mock this so the code at line (2) and (4) work right? I''m still struggling with mocks but it seems like this can be done. Forgive the naivety of this question. 1. def change_quantity 2. @line_item = LineItem.find_by_id(params[:id]) 3. unless

I asked this questions on some other places before, but have found no solution yet. I''d like to include the request helper (from ActionDispatch::Integration::RequestHelpers, like post and xhr methods) also in some specs outside of my controller specs. The problem is that these request helpers are only included in spec/ controller and when a controller is described. What do I have to

I''m trying to test that "static" pages (they''re ERB, but get cached), generated through rails, don''t render any stray flash notices left over by the authentication system (Devise) or wherever else. I''ve tried writing this controller spec, but it appears that response.body only renders the template, not its layouts? describe "so that static

Never seen the error above before, code: describe "edit action" do it "edit action should render edit template" do food = Food.create(:name=>''mooo'') # Food.any_instance.stubs(:valid?).returns(true) get :edit, :id => food.id response.should render_template(:edit) end end -------------- next part

Hi, there, I have some methods which I have written as helpers. They are in spec/support/controller_macros.rb (yes, I will change the name soon). The 2 methods, login_user and login_admin_user works in the controller specs BUT fail to work in the view specs when I call them in the view specs. ---------- spec/spec_helper.rb start -------------------------- # This file is copied to spec/

I''ve got rspec and zentest installed as well as the rspec rails plugin, and my model/controller specs all pass and work well. I can''t seem to get views to work though - 100% of the specs fail with: NoMethodError in ''/users/show.rhtml should render attributes in <p>'' protected method `render'' called for
