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 a user Model with a class method that I am using to do some authentication basically something like this class User < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessor :password attr_accessible :first_name, :last_name, :email, :birth_date, :sex, :password, :password_confirmation email_regex = /\A[\w+\-.]+@[a-z\d\-.]+\.[a-z]+\z/i validates :first_name,

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

Hi, all, I''m trying to write a spec for a controller method that starts out: def download @orders = Order.find( params[:ids] ) ... and started writing a spec that set params[:ids] to a mock. I was surprised to discover that controller specs (at least in RSpec 1.0.8) don''t offer the use of the params object (per

Hello everyone, I have a rails app which uses email as login name. At some point, I have to search the user, in the User model by email. For some reason, the method User.find_by_email(email) returns nil, even though the user is in the database. The same applies for any find_by_* method that searches by any database column. I was able to find the user using the User.find Does anyone have an idea

Hi everyone, I''d like some help to understand this method: def self.authenticate(email, submitted_password) user = find_by_email(email) return nil if user.nil? return user if user.has_password?(submitted_password) # Don''t understand why it doesn''t return user instead of nil # since ''user = find_by_email(email)'' was the last

Hi, Having just played with getting my first plain text story working, I like how it all fits together. It worked out nicely. However, I don''t feel our project needs to have stories as plain text, in fact it''s a slight hindrance for us. Is there any sensible mechanism for doing integration testing using rspec without plain text stories? Thanks, Rob

I''ve got a model Message, which needs to send an email using action mailer after it''s first saved in the database. I want to pass the model to the mailer which then uses methods on the message model to render the email. So the natural way to do this is in an after_create callback on the Message model. But I can''t see an easy way to test this. Here''s my spec

Hi, I am new to ROR and learning it. In my controller I have an admins record and I am passing that admin object to the admin''s view page to get the name of the admin. But when I try to access the name it is showing error as "undefined method `name'' for :current_admin:Symbol".. Please help.. Please find my code below Sessions Controller def create

hello there, i have been trying my hand at this rbehave material, specifically in terms of integration testing a rails application, and i am curious about the most friendly way to deal with session data. currently, the only way i have found to simulate a session is to open a session and refer to everything afterward via the @session variable stored after open_session. it seems to be workable,

How does a person test private methods? Is there a way to declare them as private, but retain any tests that were written during the initial development? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I haven''t found any How To''s to use story runner and I''m not sure how to get started. Should I be looking for resources on how to use rbehave?

This is mostly theoretical, but ... I''m starting to use lighthouse (http://llighthouseapp.com) for my projects at work. I''m organizing iterations as milestones and stories as tickets tagged to a milestone. Lighthouse offers an API so that you can write access the data in your account and write apps to process that data. I think you see where this is going. It seems to me that

Hi all, Not sure if I''m the only one with this problem... We''re on edge for both rails and rspec, and i just did an update... Some apparently innocuous rails stuff was updated, and then half my specs broke due to an error in rspec_on_rails: ArgumentError in ''UserController without logged in user should show the index page'' wrong number of arguments (2

Hi all, I''m just starting to work w/ RSpec, so I hope this question isn''t too obvious or missing the point somehow: Is there a way in RSpec to specify that a controller action should use a specific HTTP status code? Specifically I want to test for the usage of 301 as opposed to 302, for a permanent redirection. response.should be_redirect looks like it calls

Hi, I''ve been investigating plain text stories, and I had a quick question. How would I go about creating story tests for views in isolation, instead of the full stack? I had hoped to be able to do a straight render ''/'', but it says it can''t find the method. The reason that I want to do this is that I want to give our designer/business people a way to write

Hi all, I''ve been thinking about the whole validator/relationship speccing issue, and I came up with a suggestion, which I''d love to get some feedback on. The full article is available at http://www.inter-sections.net/ 2007/10/19/what-to-test-and-specify-and-where-to-do-it/ , with the relevant bit being about halfway down, but here''s the gist of it: 1.

Hi all, I''ll do my best to explain this... I have the possibility to have two customer types in my system: 1. A "mailing list" type: new records are saved when user enters email address in the mailing list subscription form. 2. A "full" type: new records are saved when the user buys something and provides all their billing/shipping details, etc. Model: -
