spec''ing shared controller methods
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?

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)

mocking methods in the controller.
Hi,
I''m very new to rspec so please be patient with me.
I''ve tried to take some of my tests out of the controller specs to check for
things that are rendered.
This has not worked so well, since my views have the controller method
current_user
in quite a few places.
Is there any way that I can define this so that my views will be executed?
Will this same thing occur for all

Stubbing authentication across multiple controllers
Hi,
I''m new to RSpec, so I''m not too sure of the best practises in stubbing. I was thinking along the lines of including a helper method that would stub out a users id and posts to sessions/create. It works fine when speccing SessionsController, but of course it fails when it is included into other controllers specs, because of the post. I''ve tried posting to an

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)
template.should_receive(:current_user).and_return(@u)

Easy AR association stubbing
I''ve added a method to the mock class that makes it pretty easy to
stub associations in rails. I''ve been using it for awhile and it seems
to cut down on a lot of setup code for the controller and model specs
that use associations.
#before
@person = mock_model(Person)
posts = mock(''post_proxy'')
posts.stub!(:build).and_return(mock_model(Post, :save => true))

Not seeing the failure
All,
I''m missing something simple, I think. I am writing a spec to say that my
CouponController should create a new coupon from the form parameters, then
set the current user. Here''s the spec:
describe CouponController, "When posting to save_coupon" do
before(:each) do
@expectedName = "pepper''s"
@expectedAmount = 5

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:
describe UsersController do
integrate_views
before(:each) do
@user = mock_model(User)

Mocking/Stubbing help with subdomain as account key
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

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.

Can NOT overides the stub! in the setup
Hello,
I am new to rSpec. I tried to search in the list, but could not find
the answer, please forgive me if somebody already answered this. Here
is my question:
I have a stub in setup:
before(:each) do
@current_user = mock("devsu")
# Generally, prefer stub! over should_receive in setup.
User.stub!(:find).and_return(@current_user)
session[:user] = @current_user.id

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!

More Rails Pattern Examples?
Hi,
I have been reading the documentation and examples on the rspec site.
There are two "patterns" from Rails that I am not clear how to
implement that are kind of related, and so I am not sure how to start.
Does anyone have any examples of how to write rspecs for these?
1/ Nested resources.
2/ Resources that are specific to the current_user. In other words, I

authentication, controller specs. I think I''m missing something simple ....
Hi all,
I feel like I''m missing something really easy and I''m just not seeing
it.
I''m using the restful_authentication plugin and have a User model. Uesr
has_many :things and Thing belongs_to :user.
That''s it.
I did a "script/generate rspec_scaffold thing" to generate all the
necessary bits. The "rake db:migrate" to create the db.

problem getting started with stubbing in rails controller specs
Hello, Ingo!
I''m copying your question to a new e-mail instead of replying to try
to keep message threads separate.
Have you tried setting up your expectation before issuing the get
statement? For example, take this out of the setup block:
get ''index'', :locale => ''en''
and move it after:

confirming that a model instance was correctly created from POST params
I''m wondering whether I''m wasting my time trying to verify that an addition I''ve made to legacy code is in fact setting a new attribute on a model.
Substruct''s (http://dev.subimage.com/projects/substruct) OrderHelper contains this method:

Mocking and stubbing Rails'' association extensions
I''m having a lot of trouble stubbing out an association extension for
some view tests. Example rails code modeling a music album:

end
end
end
So for a given Album instance (say @album), I need to be able to stub
