Hello, a very strange thing is happening : the test below pass but it should fail I had a syntax error which produced an exception in the browser and http 500 in the script/console (using app.get ''/'') But with rake test:functionals it passes - How is it possible ? Of course this file is really executed by the test suite, I can see it in the screen output of rake Which

I''m using template components to modularize an application I''m working on and am really happy with the way it''s going. Unfortunately, all my attempts at writing functional tests for them fail. Trying to duplicate my normal controller tests I have: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' require File.dirname(__FILE__) +

Hi, I''m getting a conflict between the Mocha plugin and the Rails SimplyHelpful plugin. For some reason the dom_id method from SimplyHelpful is not being found in my views when the Mocha plugin is installed. The dom_id method if used in the controller works properly. This is the error I get when running the tests: 1) Error: test_truth(HmmControllerTest):

I have the following functional test in test/functional for testing my products_controller: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' require ''products_controller'' # Re-raise errors caught by the controller. class ProductsController def rescue_action(e) raise e end end class ProductsControllerTest < Test::Unit::TestCase fixtures

Hi, Im trying to change the syntax of my tests to the test "some method" do ... end syntax from the existing def test_some_method ... end syntax. Im pasting my test code below.

Hi, I''m just learning Ruby and Rails. I have developed a Rails application, but not using the creation scripts that come with the rails distribution. Consequently, no test scaffolding is available to me, and I''m trying to write my functional tests from scratch. I have what might be considered a standard plain old controller (dashboard_controller.rb) that I''m trying

I have two methods in application controller that I want to test from ForumController: ----------------------- class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base ... def logout session[:username] = nil session[:admin] = nil redirect_to(request.request_uri) end ... def home redirect_to(:controller => ''forum'', :action =>

Hello, I''m getting an error when running functional tests as follows, using Mac OSX 10.4.9, Rails 1.2.3 . When I run: ruby test/functional/campaign_controller_test.rb I get this error: Started E Finished in 0.027402 seconds. 1) Error: test_should_get_icon_data(CampaignControllerTest): Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - /usr/src/projects/myproject/

Is there any way to change the output of rake spec fails? The errors are just totally over the top ugly and not helpful. First of all the ruby -Ilib line always comes before each test and I find it distracting. But if an error occurs on something that is not nil it just gives me the entire contents of that object and that is no small matter when the object is a HTTP request response. Here is

Hi, as it is not possible for me to use a sensible development environment to start with I have to use emulations. I use Cygwin on windows and also Colinux. (Colinux is really amazing cause it lets you run actual linux binaries und Windows.) So here is my problem, which by the way exists since Rails 0.5.0 I think. It was the reason I tried Colinux in the first place, cause the error first

ALl my controllers require the user to be logged in. SO they will be redirected to my "login" controller. How do i login first in a functional test? Im assuming i use the setup method to login the controller. This is the setup method for the Activities controller functional test: def setup @controller = ActivitiesController.new @request =

Hello. I hope this is the right place to describe my problem ? After upgrading to Rails version 1.1.2 from rails version 1.0.0, Web Service functional tests seem broken. I upgraded rails (as the root user / administrator) with: # gem update rails --include-dependencies then I upgraded my application (as myself) with: ? rake rails:update % rake rails:update:configs After these steps,

Why is it that when rescue_action is called with any exception except for RoutingError, "self" refers to a controller within my application, but when there''s a RoutingError, "self" refers to an object of ActionController::Base? This makes some sense because a "RoutingError" implies that no controller was found to process the request. However, I am trying to

Hi there, I''m trying to create a mock controller to test the use of UrlHelper in ActionMailer. I''m trying this: require ''d:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.11.0/lib/action_controller'' # Re-raise errors caught by the controller. #class DiscussionsController; def rescue_action(e) raise e end; end class MockController < ActionController::Base def

Hi, I''m plowing through the template section of "Agile Rails", specifically the stuff starting on P. 364. What is a good strategy for testing components? My initial thought is to mimic the Rails application "test" directory. No problem. Next copy the setup method, and set it up like so - class SidebarControllerTest < Test::Unit::TestCase def setup

We''ve been having problems writing functional tests for helper methods that rely on ActionView methods. Here''s a specific example. In application_helper.rb I''ve got a method called ''party_link()¨: def party_link(party) link_to party.full_name, { :controller => ''contacts'', :action =>

After *much* digging and playing around, I finally figured out how to unit test instance variables that are created by actions. It was more difficult than I expected. It seems like there should have been a more straight forward way to do this. Can someone enlighten me? A simplified and somewhat contrived example of what I am current doing: Thanks.

Hi, I hope somebody can help me here but I''m having a very strange problem getting Rails to recognise controllers inside modules. The strange thing is, it was working the other day and I''ve not changed anything as far as I''m aware. I''m running on OSX using Ruby 1.8.4 and Rails RC1 (but I''ve also tried rolling back to Rails 1.0 and tried Edge Rails)

I have the following in my functional test file. class UserControllerTest < ActionController::TestCase fixtures :users def setup @controller = UserController.new @request = ActionController::TestRequest.new @response = ActionController::TestResponse.new @invalid_user = user(:invalid_user) @valid_user = users(:valid_user) end def test_login_success
