I''m trying to spec the following conditional controller macro: class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base # turn off session management for robots session :off, :if => lambda {|req| req.user_agent =~ /(Google|Slurp)/i } # ... end My current attempt seems to be quite unsuccessful: 1) when I

Hi! I know you must be answering a lot of basic questions, sorry about that :-) However I have not get it, how do you keep mocks updated without pain? I reached to the point where mocking things for view. I spec model-controller-view using "correct doc" way mocking-stubbing (plus I should run integration test to be sure that everything really works together). Now, when I want to

Hi! Can anybody link to some ror based project what is using rspec, so nuby as me can learn from it. So it should have updated and practising advanced rspec. After reading last threat about "testing behaviour or testing code?", I just realised that I would definitely learn something from app like that. Some casual googling didn''t help me this time. Thanks! Priit at

Hi Folks, I''m still a bit confused about the issue of storing "complex" objects in session state rather than storing simple objects. It''s my understanding that everything is an object in Ruby. If my understanding is correct, then storing a string or an integer in session means storing an object. It would seem then that the problem of storing objects in session is a

Hi! I wonder does anybody planning to go beyond the default html formatter/report? The current html report is nice and green but what about to go a little silly and enable also user input. For example to let customer to add a new pending spec, comments etc. I feel it might be mentally easier for some customers to jump into spec world when it is possible to give input at "the same

I''m already successfully testing before_filters in application_controller courtesy of this blog post: http://www.movesonrails.com/articles/2008/01/23/spec-ing-your-application-controller However, i can;''t work out how to test the sort of method that is added to application_controller so that all controllers can use it. It must be something simple that i''m doing

Hi! I''m using cucumber + selenium and I love it. However I''m looking to add some methods (example: click_and_wait etc) to the lib. Therefore looked around a bit and I got two questions: Firstly about rspec-ui, I''m a little confused, does rspec-ui overlap with its propose with webrat with cucumber or I''m missing a point? Secondly, are there any plans to

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?

I track svn/trunk of Rails using svn:externals Some change to Rails committed in the last 1-2 days broke my subclass of ApplicationController The example, below, works with Rails 1.0, but in today''s svn, it dies with the following error: "superclass mismatch for class FooController" class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base end class FooController <

I want to isolate and spec methods that are shared by controllers, and live in application.rb. Whereas I usually also provide examples in individual controllers that use these methods, not necessarily all the edge cases and I''d like to isolate the examples. This is the approach I''m taking (thanks to bryanl for suggestions and http://pastie.caboo.se/123626). WDYT? This

Hi! Having some wine on Saturday and just playing around writing some ruby script: * have you spec any ''system'' method? As long I know it just returns false or true and everything else is just out of reach; prove me I''m wrong :-) it ''should have response with 64.233.167.99'' system ''ping google.com'' Priit

Hi there, How is it possible to get access to an ApplicationController property from a view? Consider this (simplified) situation: class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base def folder_id @folder_id = params[:id] return @folder_id end end class FolderController < ApplicationController def show @folder = Folder.find_by_id(folder_id) end end So far,

Hi all I want to outsource an extension for ApplicationController, that I had in application.rb so far, into a plugin. I have created this plugin, and in init.rb I load require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/lib/application_controller'' In lib/application_controller.rb I have the following code: class ApplicationController before_filter :prepare_user ... end This worked

Hello list, I''m trying to start my Rails server after doing a long complex switch from Postgres to MySQL, and I''m getting the following error: => Booting WEBrick... /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.2.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:200:in `const_missing'': uninitialized constant ApplicationController (NameError) from

Yes, more dependencies.rb fun! As far as I''m able to ascertain, these errors started appearing after upgrading from Rails 2.3.1 to 2.3.2 and persist in 2.3.3. They''re highly nonderministic and appear rather sporadically, which makes it extremely frustrating. Multiple developers on our team have experienced this problem across varying versions of Ruby/Rails. They''re

I''m dynamically generating menu options based on the currently logged in user: current_user. My menus are setup on the applicatin.rhtml file. The current_user is defined in the application controller. But, attempting to assign it a value while in the application controller results in an ''undefined method'' error. ApplicationController .... def current_user @cu =

Hi I would like to do the following: I have created an admin namespace and the required folders app/admin views/admin etc. And then I wanted all controllers under app/admin to inherit from a controller named AdminController which resists under app/admin/admin.rb instead of inhereting from ApplicationController, so I could better separate between admin and public section. The AdminController

(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 <

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.
