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.

Specing with Subdomains as Account Keys
How do you go about implementing and rspecing subdomains as account
keys? I''m sure that this must be an issues for others as well.
So I have an app using subdomains as account keys. The Application
Controller sets up @current_company in a before filter. Everything is
done within the context of the @current_company.

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

Login testing ideas
I''ve been going through Pat''s example story and noticed that there was
no checking for a bad login. I assume this is because that would have
made the article bigger and more complicated than it needed to be.
So the question that comes of of this is:
How do folks normally handle the negative case? My plan was to just
use another scenario, but as a new person to BDD/TDD,

Controller iterating through returned records and appending to each
I have a controller that gets a list of employees (which has an "include =>
[:salaries, :incentives, :billablegoals, :reviews]"). I then need it to
iterate through each employee and determine their current active goal based
on the "effective date."
After playing around with it a bunch, I got the following to work. Only
problem is that if I remove the "@employees.each {

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

Could anyone please help with rspec/nested resource behavior checking?
My problem has been listed here:

Don''t think it would be required to completely re-type it here :)
Thanks!

Stopping example execution?
Hello, I''m wondering If I am missing something here when creating an example that sets an expecation at the top or beginning of an action but requires you to stub / mock everything that follows.
Example:
I want to test that a certain controller is running a before_filter...thats easy:
- controller.should_receive(:require_user)
- do_get
But now i''ve got to mock / stub

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))

ridding away with do_request
I''m heading out of town, but had a quick thought I wanted to share.
Rather then using ambiguous named request helpers in controller specs
like "do_request", I''ve been using more readable helpers like
"post_create".
For example...
describe ProjectController do
def post_create
post :create, ...
end
before do

How thorough do you test?
Testing models is great and would not be able to create anything without
it, but I am finding testing the controllers and views is a pain.
Rest based controllers don''t seem to change that much when compared to
the auto-generated code that obviously works.
As for views I fail to see why testing it with a mock model does
anything. Nothing is ensuring that when changes are made to the

Mocking User.find( :all, :limit => 10 )
Hi,
I''m trying to setup a mock for my controller test but I can''t get it to
recognise the mock.
I use
it "should find all users" do
User.should_receive(:find).with( :all, :limit => 10
).and_return([@user])
do_get
end
and in the controller
@users = User.find(:all, :limit => 10 )
But this does not work. It gives me
User expected :find with (:all)

Not sure why this is failing
I am not sure why the tests don''t see the call of the new method for the
Address class. It can be seen in the controller method where the
Address.new is called.

What am I doing wrong?

How To Spec Controllers with Finders
Given this code (which renders rjs), I''m faced with the fixture-
driven way of spec-ing or mocking. How the heck to you mock this so
the code at line (2) and (4) work right? I''m still struggling with
mocks but it seems like this can be done. Forgive the naivety of this
question.
