Hello everyone: I am kind of puzzled in writing spec on view partials. I can not find much information about the "should have_tag" syntax in Rspec. Can rspec test a particular attribute of a tag (e.g. input tag)? Let me put an example here: #../view/group/_index <div id="test"> <input type="button" value="update" onclick="update()"

Hello everyone: Right now I am writing spec on modules, which are provided by my colleagues. Some of the modules actually contain action methods. I tried very hard to spec those action methods in modules. But it seems that the rspec does not allow module spec to ''get'' action like controller does. After I saw the documentation, I then used :behaviour_type=>:controller.

Hello everyone: I am quit new to View test using rspec. I want to write spec for a partial, which is rendered by a controller. However, the controller does not pass data to the partial using instance variables, it uses symbol variable instead. I read the example of view spec provided in the website. But the example is using instance variable. So I am looking for a way of assigning my test data

Dear fellows: I am currently working on writing specs on some ruby modules(e.g. myModule). At first I try to use script/generate to generate rspec_module, but it failed. :-( Later I manually created a file (e.g. named myModule_spec.rb) and put the ''require ....spec_helper.rb'' as the first line of code followed by ''describe'' block. Luckily, it seemed to

Good morning, dear fellows: I''d like to recall one question I posted yesterday. I am writing specs for ruby modules. Some of the modules do some data process in the test database. Because ''fixtures'' is undefined (Am I correct?) in module specs, spec of certain module (e.g. delete data form database) will affect other specs of other modules (e.g. try to access the

Hi: I am a rspec beginner. I have scratched my head for the whole afternoon, trying to figure out a way of writing render expectation in controller spec. However, I failed. It kept telling me that the ''expect_render'' was an undefined method. I have installed rspec 1.0.8 and rspec_on_rails as well. Below is the controller to be tested. Controller def index pre

Great Hi to everybody! I am currently working on a project which tests the controllers using rspec. I came across some methods in the controller which do not generate any actions at all. However, they still need testing! Some of these methods do require parameters. I am wondering how I can pass the test cases as the parameters to these targeted methods in the controller spec?? Below is a simple

Dear Fellows: I was using fixtures in the model tests using Rspec. I found that the test data specified in the fixtures was stored in the test database once I ran the spec and won''t be removed anyway. Is my observation correct? There might be another problem regarding the fixtures. When I ran the specs one by one, it was working. However, it failed when I tried to run all the

Hello everyone: I am currently assigned to test a big project which uses JRuby to build a web application. The reason of using JRuby is the web application is communicating with Java Service. I am writing test cases using Rspec and looking for a code coverage tool. Rcov is no doubt a nice code coverage tool. However, it is said that Rcov is not compatible with JRuby so far. Sigh....I can not

Good morning to everyone: So weird!! I got a method called apply_settings(arg1, arg2) in the controller to be tested. In the controller spec, I of course called the method. In the controller: def apply_settings(arg1, arg2) #where arg1 is a hash, and arg2 is an array of object #do some coding end In the controller spec: before(:each) do @controller = Controller.new

Folks, I''ve posted to the simple example I''m working with as well as the spec code and results here: http://pastie.caboo.se/86750 I can''t seem to get this to work. Any ideas?

Hi. I can''t seem to get debugging of specs working in Netbeans. AFAIK, I''m supposed to be able to just do Command+Shift+F5 with the spec open in the editor but i get this error: /Users/admin/src/expresso/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/test/unit/autorunner.rb:2:in `remove_method'': method `process_args'' not defined in Test::Unit::AutoRunner (NameError)

Folks, I''d like to spec the behaviors that I''m adding to ApplicationController. Specifically, I''m adding: def authenticated? session[:username] != nil end I described ApplicationController, but couldn''t figure out how to call the authenticated method. I''m probably going about this quite wrongly and would appreciate any hints? Thanks, Scott --

In my rspec_on_rails controlle rspec, I have this: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../spec_helper'' describe FooController, "with a foo" do it "should be false" do get ''index'' assigns[:foo].should be_false end end In my controller I have this: class FooController < ApplicationController def index @foo = FALSE end

Hi, I''m running Rails 1.1.6 and just installed RSpec 0.7.5. When I try to install the appropriate Rails plugin, it just says that "Export Complete" and doesn''t install anything to vendor. I can do it with older version, but then it''s not compatible with RSpec. Any ideas? blissdev:~/code/rails/client/wordone > ruby script/plugin install

I realise that this is kind of a basic question but I''m new to rspec and still trying to work out how to do things. I''m working on a rails project that requires basecamp integration via the api, which is fairly trivial to use via the basecamp.rb wrapper: Connection: basecamp = Basecamp.new(APP_CONFIG[''api_host''], APP_CONFIG[''api_username''],

Hello, I have some code that is going to be used in other applications, so I decided to bundle the code (mostly controllers and views) into a plugin to make sharing easier. I copied the RSpec tests for the controllers into the plugin as well. The plugin RSpec tests run, however when it gets to stubbing controller methods it does not work. For example:

Hello can anyone tell me how to test cookies using rspec? specifically, I''d like to be able to set a cookie before a get/post request and also to test the cookies which have been set by a get/post request I know I can use cookies[:name] = ''value'' to set a cookie but how would I set expiry information on such a cookie? when i try to pass a hash {:value =>

I want my class Reader to loop on the content of its Stack until false is returned. I also want an optional argument to exist that limits how many times the stack will be read, even if some elements are left. I was trying to spec this last bit but ended up on a false positive. Hope the example will be clear enough: #spec_reader.rb describe Reader do it "should stop reading items when
