similar to: How can I test my controller via rspec for something other than response.should be_success?

I''m following Michael Hartl''s Ruby on Rails 3 Tutorial but I''m using Rails 3.2.8 and FactoryGirl 4.2.0 and rspec 2.14.1 I''m in chapter 10 trying to generate tests for pagination (using will_paginate 3.2.5 which works fine in dev) I can get FactoryGirl to test just fine if I don''t use Sequence but I can''t seem to figure out the correct syntax

Hello List, I''m a bit spent on this problem, and my code might be whack. I seem to be encountering a problem where the primary key on a join table is not being resolved correctly. I will elaborate after some code bits. I am creating the join table using migrations, and relevant model code is this: class Post < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :records

Just wondering if anyone else thinks that ''response.should be_success'' is potentially misleading. If you''re writing a spec for an action that is failing in some way it can still have a status 200. So while the HTTP request was technically successful, something in the action was not. Perhaps something like ''response.should have_success_status''? Steve

Hi All, I am new to RoR and I am writing a small blog application. I have added a Destroy / Delete link to the post index, but when I click this delete link the show action is fired.

I'm using Rspec and FactoryGirl to create specs for multimodel paperclip attachments. From searching other questions, it seems like a single image attachment is more common. Car.rb class Car < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :uploads, dependent: :destroy validates :uploads, presence: { message: 'You must upload at least one image' }

Hello, all, I have this error with my rspec - controller - test, and yes, I do found the thread with the same error here, but it isn''t helped me, think it''s not my case. i have rails -v = Rails 3.0.0.rc, rspec -v = 2.0.0.beta.18 (hope they should match each other). my test is here: spec/controllers/posts_controller_spec.rb and i ran it with command: rspec

I want to test that the JSON response from a create action is sanitized properly, but rspec or webrat appears to be parsing the output into proper HTML chars instead of escaped characters. I have verified that it escapes properly in the regular browser json response. The relevant RSpec test code is: include ActionView::Helpers::TextHelper include ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper it
