Hello, I''m new to rails and I''m trying to wrap my heads around how to spec controllers using RSpec (using rails 3rc1 and rspec 2.0.0.beta.19). The problem I''ve run into is when I want to test that my controllers respond with a 404 for unfound records. Whenever I run the spec, the ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound exception is not caught by rails, causing the spec

I want to use mocks and stubs to test the controller, but am having trouble getting my validation not to trigger. Here''s the code: # spec: Image.stub!(:find).and_return(@image) @image.should_receive(:save!).once.with(:any_args) put :update, :id => @image.id, :category_id => @category.id, :image => {:name => ''test'', :image_number =>

Hello, Is anyone else having trouble with the and_raise method on mocks, with respect to shared behaviors? If I do the following instead: foo.should_receive(:bar).and_return { raise } everything seems to work. I have been supplying no arguments to and_raise, by the way. Also, you may want to make the background in the code examples on the home page a little lighter. I am hardly able to

I was looking over some of my specs. I was thinking that the following: @game.should_receive(:name).and_return(''The Battle for Blaze'') @game.should_receive(:people).and_return(5000000) @game.should_receive(:activated).and_return(true) Would it look cleaner if I could do this instead? @game.should_recieve_and_return( :name => ''The Battle for Blaze''

Hi all, Sometime, I get the following error in my application: ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken in ManageController#site_servers ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken I tried to put the code in manage controller between begin ... rescue ... end but it didn''t catch the error. So I tried in the application.rb controller, I put the forgery code between begin ... rescue ...

I''ve come across rather strange behaviour when trying to raise an exception in a stubbed method. I''m speccing the behaviour of a Rails create action, where I''m using save! to catch failed saves. In the case of working save, I''m using the following stub: @client.stub!(:save!).and_return(true) which works fine. However, in the negative case,

Greetings, I''m using rspec with rcov for my applications and there is one issue which I cannot solve nor can find any proper information regarding it: specing what is in a rescue block in case of an exception. I''m using Ruby on Rails and I usually make use of exceptions in my controllers, like the following example: def action @foo = Foo.find(1)

I''m trying to spec a dead simple "show non-existent record should render 404" case, but it seems the RecordNotFound exception is making it impossible for some reason. #controller def show @event = Event.find(params[:id]) end #spec - pretty much straight from the rspec site before do Event.stub!(:find) get :show, :id => ''broken'' end #

Having some weird failures of rescue_from in all my specs. They still rescue in actual usage, just not in my specs. Made a pastie of the code: http://pastie.org/257399 This is with latest [as of 1:00 PM Eastern time zone] rspec/rspec-rails/edge. Thanks in advance for any replies on this.

I''m trying to mock a object to raise a certain error. By doing so I get a ArgumentError on ActiveRecord''s save! method: http://pastie.caboo.se/85628 I''ve tried to debug it but just can''t seem to find what I''m doing wrong. Any help is greatly appreciated. Cheers, Eivind Uggedal

I wrote this abomination just now, and wonder if anyone else has had experience with the pattern behind it. In short, I''m specing an after_create hook on an ActiveRecord model, that calls a bunch of private methods. Instead of stubbing all those private methods (which is verboten anyway, as well as impossible because creating the object which owns those methods is what I''m

Hi guys, I have a weird failing spec, for which I just cannot figure out the reason of failure. I''m now rewriting my controller specs based on the advice of David and Ashley, and I got stuck on this (see: [rspec- users] specing rescue, ensure and else blocks of an Exception). http://pastie.caboo.se/111221 I''ve tried everything, like stubbing out :update_attributes! , even

Hi everyone, I was just trying to catch some exceptions in my app, for "Record Not Found" I used this in my application.rb file rescue_from ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound, :with => :record_not_found rescue_from ActionController::NoMethodError, :with => :show_error private def record_not_found render :text => "404 Not Found", :status =>

The new rescue_from in edge rails seems to conflict with ActionWebService, which I need for various other purposes. When I define, for example (with AWS gem installed): <b>rescue_from ActionController::RoutingError, :with => :page_not_found</b> I get the exception: <b>uninitialized constant ActionWebService::Dispatcher::ActionController::Base</b> OK, so AWS

Hi, I have a project that I had running under rspec 0.6.x and recently upgraded to 0.7.2. I am trying to isolate my controllers from the database as I go through and change all the specs to run under 0.7.2. I am having a problem where I need to make the create! method return the mocked object as well as raise RecordInvalid exception. Is this at all possible? I use the rescue statement in my

What is the appropriate way to stub out (and put an expectation on Object#__send__), without getting warnings from the Rspec mock library? Scott

OK ... so I''m not supposed to use it but ... Why doesn''t rescue_from ActionController::RoutingError work witht he code from http://www.rubyplus.org/episodes/20-Extended-RESTful-Authentication-Rails-2-App.html class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base helper :all # include all helpers, all the time # See ActionController::RequestForgeryProtection for details

Hi there, I''m using Log4r in my rails projects. On log.error an email is sent using the EmailOutputter. I know changed the EmailOutputter to include a global var in the subject (MDC) since the subject is normally static. I want to set this var to the exception message, so it is sent as the subject. Can anyone tell me how to do this in rails? Basically: raise e or some other cause

Hi, My helper specs were going ok until I added a call to a rails DateHelper method in one of my helpers http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActionView/Helpers/ DateHelper.html#M000574 The helper runs fine from my view templates, just dies in the spec test. I boiled my question down to a simple (not too useful) example. I''m not sure what I''m missing. #

rescue_from stores exception class names in a hash table, and associates them with handlers. When an exception is raised there''s a name lookup, and if an entry is found its handler is invoked. In particular rescue_from does not emulate Ruby''s rescue semantics with regard to inheritance. Which is the rationale? Don''t you think taking is_a? and declaration order
