similar to: problem with rspec_on_rails and @controller.should_receive(:render) in trunk

The "rspec" rake task collects all _spec files in the spec directory, and excludes the "watir" directory. Is this indicating a preference for using Watir over Selenium? I would like it better to standardize on something more neutral, ''ui'' perhaps? /Marcus -- Marcus Ahnve http://marcus.ahnve.net

Recently as a result of using Git I''ve noticed a number of inconsistencies in the RSpec codebase with respect to whitespace (mixed line endings, mixed use of spaces and tabs for indentation, and trailing whitespace at the end of lines). I never would have noticed, but Git produces nice colorized diff output which highlights these kinds of inconsistencies. I wanted to ask if the

Hi all - I''ve applied (to trunk) Bob Cotton''s patch which supports shared behaviours (link to tracker below). I''m still toying w/ names, so please be aware that until this is released w/ 0.9 it should be considered experimental and there will NOT be translation support for it. It will definitely be included in some form - just the names (specifically

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, Blake describe VenuesController, "on update" do before(:each) do @venue = mock("venue")

Hi, My helper specs were going ok until I added a call to a rails DateHelper method in one of my helpers http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActionView/Helpers/ DateHelper.html#M000574 The helper runs fine from my view templates, just dies in the spec test. I boiled my question down to a simple (not too useful) example. I''m not sure what I''m missing. #

I don''t like this: i = mock(Integer) i.should_receive(:asdfasdf).and_return(''foo'') puts i.asdfasdf Shouldn''t rspec check to see that :asdfasdf is a valid message to be sending Integer? Joe

I''m doing a redirect in one of my controller actions and somehow I can''t spec it, see this pastie: http://pastie.caboo.se/53120. When following the link from a browser I''m being redirected to the right page. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I saw in one of Dave C.''s comments to a ticket that "our current plan is to deprecate the mocking framework." I hadn''t heard anything about that, but then again I haven''t paid super close attention to the list. Are we planning on dumping the mock framework in favor of using Mocha (or any other framework one might want to plug in?). Pat

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? courtenay

Hi, It appears that if I have 2 should_receives in a row, the latest one overrides the previous one(s). If there isn''t one, could we add a way to accumulate them, such as @thing.should_receive(:method).and_return(@value) @thing.should_receive(:method).again.and_return(@value) @thing.should_receive(:method).again.and_return(@value) would be equivalent to

Hey, I just ran into a situation where I would like to expect a method call with an argument I know and another one, which is a random number. I think mocking up the rand method is somehow ugly so I thought maybe this is the first time where I can take something from Java to Ruby ;) Java''s EasyMock mocking library knows things like "anyObject()" and "anyInteger()" in

Hi all, I have a method calling Klass.create! two times with different arguments (this happens in a class reponsable for reading in a csv file) I want to test those like this: in one test: Klass.should_receive(:create!).with(:name => "foo").once in another: Klass.should_receive(:create!).with(:name => "foo2").once This doesn''t work because the

I''m trying to specify that a particular view must render two different partials. My spec looks like: describe AClass do it do template.should_receive(:render).with(:partial => ''foo'', :locals => { ... }) ... end describe ''some conditional case'' do it do template.should_receive(:render).with(:partial =>

Hey, I''m using rspec and rails and have a spec that tests if a before_filter is executed, I also have a spec that tests if a method called by the filter is executed. It appears however that when I should_receive something, it is no longer actually called when I fire the http request. I''m not sure how, or where exactly I should manually fire the filter, either before or after the

Hi, surely I''m missing something... but what!? in my spec I''ve User.should_receive(:find).with("1").and_return(@user) and in my controller User.find(params[:id]) green light... correct... but if I change my controller using another method, for example first: User.first or even User.all I get green light too... I was expecting an error like expected: 1 time

Hey Guys, I''m trying to mock the Rails Logger for the following code: ... rescue TimeoutError => error $logger.error("#{self.name} Timeout for #{path}: #{error}") and return rescue SocketError => error $logger.error("#{self.name} SocketError for #{path}: #{error}") and return rescue StandardError => error

Hey Guys, I''m trying to mock the Rails Logger for the following code: ... rescue TimeoutError => error $logger.error("#{self.name} Timeout for #{path}: #{error}") and return rescue SocketError => error $logger.error("#{self.name} SocketError for #{path}: #{error}") and return rescue StandardError => error

I use: STDOUT.should_receive(:puts).with...... many times in RSPEC However, I have a couple of "do you want(Y/N)?" where I use ''print'' and apparently ..(:print).with... does not work. I can change ''print'' to ''puts'' and it works perfectly. How do I test :print and ...getch("y") for input??? Any help would be

Hi! The following example doesn''t work for me: http://pastie.caboo.se/41732 However, if the call to msg() happens in the specify block after the expecation and not in the setup, it will pass. Why is this? I thought the setup method was there to actually ''construct'' the context and the specifications are some kind of "postconditions" that only need to be

Hi I just got bit by a misunderstanding about and_return. I''ve got this controller method parse_parameters that loops over query string parameters and parses out vehicle registration dates. We have to turn these into one of three bands (Jan-Feb, Mar-Aug, Sep- Dec) so I wrote a method (registration_date_to_band_year_and_month) takes a date and returns two return values, the year
