similar to: mock_model not stubbing model attribtues in view spec

I am using mock_model in my tests, and I encountered a situation where my stub is failing. Here''s the scenario: Controller: @locations = Location.al(:bounds=>bounds)l @locations.sort_by_distance_from([bounds.center.lat,bounds.center.lng]) Rspec: @location = mock_model(Location) Location.stub(:all).and_return([@location])

Howdy, I have emailed before about the inconsistencies I''m spotting when using named routes/resource, but I think I''ve narrowed down the issue. It would seem this has nothing to do with rspec per se, but more with how routing works with rails. If you have an object instance, that isn''t saved and you attempt to generate a path for that item, even though the item may

I find myself doing this kind of thing a lot in Controller Specs: @vacancy = mock_model(Vacancy) @vacancy.stub!(:reference) @vacancy.stub!(:title) @vacancy.stub!(:created_at) @vacancy.stub!(:updated_at) @vacancy.stub!(:body) @vacancy.stub!(:contract) @vacancy.stub!(:location) @vacancy.stub!(:salary) @vacancy.stub!(:benefits)

Hi All, I am new to rspec and it seems that I don''t understand some basics. I need to have a XML import which should parse through XML data and saves all that in various mysql tables. The XML part works just fine and I can test this with rspec. However when I try to execute it "should find country object for DE" do I get an error. @user.country is a one-to-many relation in

Never seen the error above before, code: describe "edit action" do it "edit action should render edit template" do food = Food.create(:name=>''mooo'') # Food.any_instance.stubs(:valid?).returns(true) get :edit, :id => food.id response.should render_template(:edit) end end -------------- next part

Hi, My application relies on request.domain for doing its job. The problem I am encountering, is that when running tests, request.domain returns "test.host", how can I change that so that it returns "mysite.com"? Thanks in advance. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is there any way to do foo.should (be_nil || be_empty) in rspec. Thanks in advance -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/rspec-users/attachments/20081104/ee43c9c9/attachment.html>

Hello. You''re saying that: To get rspec to behave as it did before this change, use this: --pattern "**/*.rb" I tried like this (rspec 1.03) and it wasn''t same as before (rspec 1.08). Now it also loads all other files in current directory and in all subdirectories and not only from directory and subdirectories given to spec as a parameter. So, for example, I have

Hi The code I''m working on now is a server daemon that talks to Twitter, an RSS feed, and some web pages. I''ve got mock implementations of Twitter and the web stuff, which I start and stop with daemon_controller[1]. I do all the setup in a Before block, but this makes the feature runs agonisingly slow due to the time waiting for everything to restart. I''m

I''ve found these two snippets of code useful and would love some feedback. first, .should_have_valid_associations usage: context "A new Product" do specify "should have valid associations" do @product.should_have_valid_associations end end code: (thanks to Wilson/Defiler for converting to rspec) module Spec module Expectations module Should

I wrote a Rails plugin which uses simian to look for duplicates lines in your code and reports in html format, Textmate or Netbeans. I wrote it using RSpec and I have included a RSpec custom matcher: it { rails_application. with_threshold_of_duplicate_lines(4). should be_DRY } If you use Autotest, your specs will fail the next time you do a nasty copy-paste !!!

Is there a built-in way of describing a mock_model as being an instance, beyond stubbing the eval("Object.methods - Object.new.methods") methods to throw NoMethodErrors? Edward

Hi I''ve been doing this a while now. If I have a class that responds to : [], and all I''m interested in stubbing is that method, then instead of using a mock I just create a hash. (Similarly, you could create an array when you are testing an Enumerable object.) Example from code I just worked on, where uses MigrationGraph#[] looks up graph vertices by name:

Has anyone else run into a problem with trying to use mock_model in spec/lib ? For some reason, I can take the same spec, put it in spec/models, have it run fine, but put it in spec/lib, and have it complain about not being able to find #mock_model Thanks, Edward

Please understand in the following that I am making relatively minor changes to legacy (non-TDD/BDD) code in Substruct and don''t have the time to refactor nicely right now. I''m just trying to get past the untested/un-speced cruft quickly to write the spec for my new code, so I''m looking for expediency over prettiness. I''m specifying before( :each ) do

I writing a spec that returns the count of how many players in a game: it "should how many players in a link to all players" do render :partial =>"games/game", :object => @game response.should have_tag(''a'',"(2) Players") end I''m not sure how to do the mock model, I think it would be done two ways but unsure of the syntax: 1: add

Hi, I have two models in an app that inherit from ActiveResource::Base. The scaffold controller tests for one of the models works fine, but the other one dies when calling mock_model in the "handling GET /fa_codes" spec: Specifically, the call to mock model here: before do @fa_code = mock_model(FaCode) FaCode.stub!(:find).and_return([@fa_code]) end generates this failure:

I have a namespace called saltmines The following will fail the spec @player = mock_model(Saltmines::Player) 1) ActionView::TemplateError in ''/saltmines/players/index.rhtml should render list of saltmines/players'' You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! You might have expected an instance of Array. The error occurred while evaluating nil.each On line #9 of

So I have a describe which is a subclass of RailsExampleGroup. I inserted some data into my database, and reconnect! my connection. Before reconnect, finding the data I just created is fine. The data cannot be found, after reconnection, the data is gone. It''s not in the database. It looks to me the data is not actually inserted into the DB at all, just somehow buffered somewhere. Would
