similar to: Simulate an enumerable with a mock

There is one annoyance I''m encountering with the Mock API in rSpec. Overall it works well, as far as dynamic mocks go ;)... but there''s this one thing... It doesn''t allow overriding of expectations. example: m = mock("blah") m.should_receive(:one).any_number_of_times().and_return(1) m.should_receive(:one).and_return(1) The second call to should_receive

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)

Hi all, I looked at the open issues on the bug tracker, but couldn''t find anything related to this. I also searched the archives. And I can''t believe someone didn''t hit on this before. Here''s my spec: context "A project owner" do controller_name :roles setup do controller.stub!(:current_user).and_return(@user = mock("user"))

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

I have the following statement mock_requester.should_receive(:request_with).with ("x").any_number_of_times.and_return(@object) which works fine, but when i do it backwards, which makes the same amount of sense syntactically, it fails mock_requester.should_receive(:request_with).with("x").and_return (@object).any_number_of_times are all of the mock options

I am a little confused to the what happens with the following: before do @site = mock_model(Site, :to_param => "1") Site.stub!(:new).and_return(@site) end def post_with_successful_save @site.should_receive(:save).and_return(true) post :create, :site => {} end I understand that the "@site.should_receive(:save)..." places a check to whether the

Hi Just wrote myself a Date.extract_from_rails_hash to handle parsing the "date(1i)", "date(2i)" parameters created in the controller params. I''ve got a method that needs to call this either once or twice, depending on the contents of the form (one section of the form is rendered conditionally). So I had two specs for the case where the second form section

My app uses account_location to set up subdomains as account keys. In my controllers, all my model operations are scoped through the @current_person object. The question is: How do I test this with RSpec''s mocking and stubbing? Basically, I need to test that @current_person.things is getting the find message and returning @thing. I''ve tried stubbing and mocking

Hello Rspecers, I have a rails project where I am calling Resolv::DNS.open and then using the block to check a domain name. The code snippet in question is: domain = "mytest.com" Resolv::DNS.open do |dns| @mx = dns.getresources(domain, Resolv::DNS::Resource::IN::MX) end I obviously want to stub this out, especially for speed but can''t quite work out how. I

Hi all, I am mocking the following Rails view (inside a partial): <%= render :partial => "forums/forum", :collection => forum_category.forums.readable_by(current_user? ? current_user : nil) %> My spec fails with the following message: 1) ActionView::TemplateError in ''forum_categories/index (anonymous user) should only render forums accessible to anonymous

How would you spec out something like the following: def a_method x = Class.new do include Enumerable end # do something here with x end describe "The Anonymous Class" do before :each do @anonymous_class = mock Class Class.stub!(:new).and_return @anonymous_class end it "should create a new anonymous class" do

I''m having a terrible time trying to test a nested route with rSpec. I can''t seem to tell rSpec to expect the call @item.user. The following error message plagues me not matter how I try to fuss with the mock: Spec::Mocks::MockExpectationError in ''ItemsController handling POST / items should redirect to the new course on successful save'' Mock

I''m having a problems mocking successive return values. I don''t know if I''m doing something wrong or if this is a limitation of rspec mocks. Any ideas of what I may be doing wrong? I''m trying to test the generate_quote_number method. It generates a quote number, looks to see if it is in the db already. If it is, it calls itself to try again. I want

Hi everyone, I''m trying this in my helper spec and it didn''t work: @curr_odontogram.should_receive(''photos[1]'').and_return(@photo) and the error is: SyntaxError in ''PersonHelper Deberia devolverme un link para eliminar una foto'' compile error /home/gramos/src/rails/r-dental/config/../vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/mocks/proxy.rb:99: syntax

Hey guys and gals, I have a snippet of code: Net::SMTP(@host, @port, @from_domain) do |smtp| @emails.each do |email| begin smtp.send_message email.encoded, email.from, email.destinations @emails_sent += 1 rescue Exception => e # blah end end end What I want to do is: Say there are 4 emails. First email is sent OK On the second email smtp raises a IOError

hi all I have the following code in a spec: @user = mock("user") User.stub!(:authenticate).and_return(@user) @user.should_receive(:id).once.and_return(99) post :login, {:username => ''username'', :password => ''password''} session[:user_id].should == 99 it works as expected but I get the following warning when I run the spec: warning:

One thing that is bothering me about my controller specs is that sometimes I end up with a number of examples that are the same except for the example name. The reason that this happens is that I''ve expressed all the expected behavior with should_receive. While this does more or less work as intended it doesn''t feel right. As an example, let''s say I''m writing

Hello forum I have there to files #----- virtual_host_controller.rb class VirtualHostsController < ApplicationController before_filter :capture_domain # GET /domain/1/virtual_hosts/1 def show @virtual_host = @domain.virtual_hosts.find(params[:id]) respond_to do |format| format.html # show.rhtml end end private def capture_domain if

I am setting up an AR mock object and wanted to sanity check it. My intent is to mix this into all my examples and then override/add methods where necessary. Note that I''ve anticipated three cases for find: find with one numeric argument => object find with :all => Array find with anything else => nil This roughly approximates how ActiveRecord::find works in this case

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
