I''m really bad at controllers, help please.
Hey,
Sorry for so many questions - I''m really bad at this right now.
I''m trying to cover the following code w/ rspec
def index
if params[:user_id]
@user = User.find(params[:user_id])
@messages = @user.messages
end
end
So basically what I''m doing is listing all the messages for a user,
provided there is an id parameter.

Need help mocking this out
Let''s say you''re using the restful_authentication plugin.
You have a model called articles. On the index action of the
articlescontroller you simply want to spec out that it''ll scope the results
to the ownership of the current_user.
It should NOT include any articles other than the articles that user owns.
How would you properly spec this out?
Thanks for the help!

How to test for exceptions
Hi folks,
I''m in the process of converting a Test::Unit functional test to RSpec, but I''ve run into a slight problem. I tried looking through the documentation but I still don''t know what I missed.
Thanks in advance,

Could anyone please help with rspec/nested resource behavior checking?
My problem has been listed here:
http://railsforum.com/viewtopic.php?pid=25439#p25439
Don''t think it would be required to completely re-type it here :)
Thanks!

Agh, this is annoying. Why is this happening?
My problem:
Mock ''Task_1005'' received unexpected message :user_id= with (1)
No matter what I do to try to stub that out it will still fail out and give
me that message.
Here is my spec
describe TasksController, "handling POST /tasks" do
before(:each) do
@task = mock_model(Task, :to_param => "1", :save => true)

Controller Isolation
Hi,
I have a project that I had running under rspec 0.6.x and recently upgraded
to 0.7.2.
I am trying to isolate my controllers from the database as I go through and
change all the specs to run under 0.7.2.
I am having a problem where I need to make the create! method return the
mocked object as well as raise RecordInvalid exception. Is this at all
possible?
I use the rescue statement in my

should_receive, used in the wrong place?
What do you guys think of this: if someone calls should_receive
outside of an "it" block, it warns you.
before(:each) do
@foo = Foo.new
@foo.should_receive(:monkeys)
end
would warn you that you''re setting an expectation in the wrong place,
and that "stub" is correct when setting up objects.
Opinions?

controller spec with model that validates_uniqueness

stubbing helper methods for View specs
Hi there
I have several view specs, that include the following snippet in
their "before" block to stub the methods by acts_as_authenticated
before :each do
@u = mock_model(User)
@u.should_receive(:name).and_return("Hans Muster")
template.should_receive(:logged_in?).and_return(true)

Weird failing spec
Hi guys,
I have a weird failing spec, for which I just cannot figure out the
reason of failure. I''m now rewriting my controller specs based on the
advice of David and Ashley, and I got stuck on this (see: [rspec-
users] specing rescue, ensure and else blocks of an Exception).

Mocking Access Control
I''m trying to jump on the TDD/BDD bandwagon, but am having trouble
understanding how i should mock my user. The user has a habtm
relationship to a roles model (acl_system2 plugin), but I''m not sure
how to tell rspec about a model.
My code:

specing rescue, ensure and else blocks of an Exception
Greetings,
I''m using rspec with rcov for my applications and there is one issue
which I cannot solve nor can find any proper information regarding
it: specing what is in a rescue block in case of an exception.
I''m using Ruby on Rails and I usually make use of exceptions in my
controllers, like the following example:
def action
@foo = Foo.find(1)

Failing to raise an exception in a stub
I''ve come across rather strange behaviour when trying to raise an
exception in a stubbed method.
I''m speccing the behaviour of a Rails create action, where I''m using
save! to catch failed saves. In the case of working save, I''m using
the following stub:
@client.stub!(:save!).and_return(true)
which works fine.
However, in the negative case,

Shared behavior and_raise problem, and site aestetics
Hello,
Is anyone else having trouble with the and_raise method on mocks,
with respect to shared behaviors? If I do the following instead:
foo.should_receive(:bar).and_return { raise }
everything seems to work. I have been supplying no arguments to
and_raise, by the way.
Also, you may want to make the background in the code examples on the
home page a little lighter. I am hardly able to

Annoying problem, stack error

Problems with RESTfully generated helpers
I am using helper the RESTfully generated helper methods in my views.
My routes are nested so the helpers appear to need arguments passed to
them, but it works without arguments. Say for example I have pages and
comments. If I do page_comments_path without parameters, it works.
However, when I run the rspec test, it fails and tells me i''m missing
parameters. I tried to pass

Example controller spec no worky?
I''m trying to spec a dead simple "show non-existent record should render
404" case, but it seems the RecordNotFound exception is making it
impossible for some reason.
#controller
def show
@event = Event.find(params[:id])
end
#spec - pretty much straight from the rspec site
before do
Event.stub!(:find)
get :show, :id => ''broken''
end
