Hello all. Is there a way to stop users from being able to access a controllers methods without affecting the ability of other controllers to use them? i.e FooController def secret #Stuff end end BarController def index redirect_to :controller => ''foo'', action => ''secret'', :id => ''007'' end end But directly

Out of curiosity, I''ve seen the following fail: module Admin describe MyController ... end end But this works fine: describe Admin::MyController .. end Why? Scott

I''m trying to use it_should_behave_like, and something seems to be wonky with the syntax. When I add :shared=>true, the DSL complains that the next line is the fixture declaration: /vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/dsl/behaviour_eval.rb:137:in `method_missing'': undefined method `fixtures'' for #<Spec::DSL::EvalModule:0x324a2cc> (NoMethodError) Here''s the

hi, i want to make a behavior shared between models, the examples need to create new instances etc. Is there a way to pass the model class to the shared behavior? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

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, Has anyone already come up with a set of shared behaviours that someone could leverage when adhering to a CRUD concept, with respect to controllers? Relatedly, it would be nice if there were a way to share generalized behaviour specs. -Chris

Hi all, Currently I''m having to do this: def self.authorized_roles(controller, action) specific = self.find_by_controller_and_action(controller, action) all_actions = self.find_by_controller_and_action(controller, ''*'') all_controllers = self.find_by_controller(''*'') role_ids = [] specific.each do |role_item| role_ids <<

The Rails ApplicationController (app/controllers/application.rb) serves as an abstract superclass for all other controllers in a Rails application and is a good place to put methods and filters which you want all of your controllers to use. In my case I''m using it to provide methods such as "current_user" and "logged_in?" etc. By default, RSpec

Hi folks, Can anyone share some accumulated wisdom about the best way to spec mixins in general, and (Jamis Buck-style) ActiveRecord "concerns" in particular? The standard situation here is that there''s a bunch of functionality, related by concept if not by implementation, that one wants to inherit in many different classes (e.g. ActiveRecord models) without having to

Given the following ApplicationController specs: describe ApplicationController, "one facet", :shared => true do it ''foo'' ... it ''bar'' ... end describe ApplicationController, "some other facet", :shared => true do it ''abc'' ... it ''xyz'' ... end describe

Hi I just wondered if there was a reason why Rails controller specs are not shareable? eg describe "All XHR POSTs to /gap/calculate_quote", :shared => true do controller_name :gap # ... end describe "XHR POST /gap/calculate_quote with valid details" do it_should_behave_like "All XHR POSTs to /gap/calculate_quote" # ... end blows up with

I''d like to test that my model attributes are properly protected against mass assignment, something like: it "should NOT update :balance on mass assignment" do @account.attributes = {:balance => 1000} @account.balance.should_not == 1000 end instead of doing each attribute manually however, I''d like to automate it so I can pass a list of attributes which CAN be

Is there anyway to achieve inheritance of specifications? Suppose I had an action like def index filter = params[:filter] ? params[:filter] : ''%'' order = params[:order] ? params[:order] : ''created_at DESC'' @posts = Post.find(:conditions => "title LIKE #{filter}", :order => order) ... end Now I might have half a dozen specs for this

Hi, I want to be able to get at the described class in my shared behaviour. I''m sure an example will say it better than my words describe "my shared", :shared => true do it "should tell me what the class is its describing" do how_do_i_get_the_user_class_here end end describe User do it_should_behave_like "my shared" #... end So in my

I suspect there''s an easier version of this question that I could ask, but I''m not sure where I''m going wrong. I have LoginEngine and UserEngine setup and seemingly running fine. However, not all of my controllers are being found when I run "rake sync_permissions". Specifically, it''s the controllers that are not in the base controllers folder, but

Hi, I''m developing a RESTful Rails application whose code and specs are becoming increasingly repetitive: every controller does pretty much the same set of things (give or take the occasional twiddle), for example, and so every controller spec is almost identical modulo some names, constants and strings. The make_resourceful plugin, which autogenerates the boilerplate REST

Is it possible to access the described class in a shared behavior? I''m trying to do something like this: describe "Siberian feline", :shared => true do described_class_instance_as :feline, :name => "fluffy", :breed => "Siberian" # or maybe before(:all) do @feline = described_class.new(:name => "fluffy", :breed =>

Hi, In my test case below, it seems that ''initialize'' is called everytime ''hello'' is called. Is this by design, a bug, or my pilot error? class FooController < ApplicationController def initialize print "\n initialize \n" end def hello print "\n hello \n" end end I

I''m trying to write some tests for the ApplicationController as shared tests that can be run in all of my other controller tests, but am getting a nil.rewrite error. Below is what I have... describe AccountController do it_should_behave_like ''Application controller'' end describe ''Application controller'', :shared => true do it

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
