I''m already successfully testing before_filters in application_controller courtesy of this blog post: http://www.movesonrails.com/articles/2008/01/23/spec-ing-your-application-controller However, i can;''t work out how to test the sort of method that is added to application_controller so that all controllers can use it. It must be something simple that i''m doing

must be doing something dumb.... not sure, but the ''call'' appears to be on the block.call when the respond_to block gets executed. straight forward "channels" resource with a ''create'' action.... only new thing is just assigning the current_user to the model. def create @channel = Channel.new(params[:channel]) @channel.user = @user

The RSpec Development Team is pleased as glug (that''s kind of like punch, but more festive) to announce RSpec-1.1.0. Thanks to all who have contributed patches over the last few months. Big thanks to Dan North and Brian Takita for their important work on this release. Dan contributed his rbehave framework which is now the Story Runner. Brian patiently did a TON of refactoring around

I really like the idea of Mock Proxies as explained in Brian Takita''s post here: http://pivots.pivotallabs.com/users/brian/blog/articles/352-introducing-rr I posted to this list eariler with an incomplete implementation of .stops_mocking in the thread "Mocking Time, delegating to original object." The Mock Proxy pattern would make this simpler.

Given that RSpec has the following methods to create test doubles ... double(:my_test_double) mock(:my_mock_object) stub(:my_stub) Is there a way to/ plans to introduce a similar syntax for null objects? null_object(:my_null_object) Instead of mock(:bar, :is_null_object => true) or mock(:foo).as_null_object I think this would be cleaner, what do you think?

I''m working on a series going over the source code for rspec, and I ran into something interesting with ExampleGroup and SharedExampleGroup. I was wondering if anyone could shed light on it. [NOTE: I''m working through the code for my own edification in learning Ruby. Ruby has some features that I think are incredibly cool, so I''m using a concrete implementation (RSpec)

Hi I am using Mongoid. In Mongoid while saving a record we typically give like in the controller @post.safely.save For a model class Post I am writing rspecs for my controller and want to mock the model. So what I am doing is let(:post) { mock_model(Post).as_null_object } before(:each) do Post.stub(:new).and_return(post) end it "creates new post"

I''m having trouble getting the specs to run for a plugin where I want to fix a bug. (I''ve actually already found and fixed the bug, but I don''t want to submit a fix without a test!) When I started the specs weren''t running, but it may be that I''m using Rails 2.3.3 and the plugin has been tested on 2.1 and earlier. I went through writing a spec for a

I was reading through the FlexMock docs and noticed the expectation method .mock, which returns the original mock associated with an expectation. It looks really handy for writing nice all-in-one mocks like: mock_user = mock(''User'').expects(:first_name).returns(''Jonah'').mock So I started playing around with mocha and found I could actually already do this!

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.

User.stub!(:find).and_return(@current_user) session[:user] = @current_user.id

I would like to have some valid mock models readily available in the helper module, but when I try to access the helper I get the error saying that the method is not found. ======= describe MembersHelper do # Helper methods can be called directly in the examples (it blocks) def valid_member_mock member = mock_model(Member) member.stub!(:first_name).and_return("Joe")

I''m in the process of updating an app for Rails 3.0 and rspec-rails 2.0.0.beta20. When I''m running my specs (rake spec) I get a large number of errors caused by two undefined methods undefined method `has_selector?'' for #<String:0x7fdbd0b5b270> undefined method `flunk'' for

Hello everybody, I am experiencing the following problems, I googled quickly but I couldn''t find any documentation or solution to those issues: 1) the generator rails g rspec:helper does nothing; 2) there seems to be no way to test helper methods as I used to do... for example the following spec it ''should set monday as first day of the week'' do
