Hey! I have implemented a quick solution for the should != .. , should ! ~ ... ''problem''. It uses source code inspection (I think it''s the only way) and i''ve done some benchmarking to see if it''s really that slow. A direct comparison of running ''1.should == 1'' with the unmodified rspec source against the rspec-version with

I''m wanting to write a spec that a model is applying an :order option to a find call, but I don''t want to completely specify all of the find parameters. So I want to write something like this, say in a controller spec User.should_receive(:find).with(:all, hash_with_at_least(:order => ''user.name ASC'')) get ''index'', :sort =>

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

hi, i want to make a behavior shared between models, the examples need to create new instances etc. Is there a way to pass the model class to the shared behavior? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hey, May be it is just too deep night over here and I''m missing something though I got this failure on {{{response.should_not redirect_to}}}: ''QueuesController should allow authenticated user to access ''show'''' FAILED Matcher does not support should_not. See Spec::Matchers for more information about matchers. Also I''ve found this in

Hello Guys, Doing conversion of some test for some controllers, still with integrated views. Anyway, I have this: it "should not see Join This Group button on profile page as member" do get "show", :id => @group.id response.should be_success response.should_not have_text(/Join This Group/) end But running with spec (0.9.4), drop me the folling error:

Here is the code in question: describe UsersController do render_views … … describe "POST to ''create'' action" do describe "failure" do before(:each) do @attr = { :name => '''', :email => '''', :password => '''', :password_confirmation =>

I appear to have written code which travels backwards through time: http://www.vimeo.com/742590 This disturbs me immensely. If anyone can explain it, that would be cool. I think it''s an illusion brought about by how RSpec wraps the code it executes, and by the sheer weirdness of continuations. -- Giles Bowkett Blog: http://gilesbowkett.blogspot.com Portfolio:

I''ve just upgraded to Rails 3.2.1 and I can''t get my specs checking whether or not around_save work anymore. I simply did something like: object.should_receive :around_filter_name object.save.should be_true (Actually, it was slightly more complex, it''s part of a state machine)

I''m currently taking a Rails project management app I built when learning Rails and adding specs to it. During the course of building the app the requirement that project should be archiveable was added. So a project is in one of two states active or archived. This led to the creation of the following methods: Project.active_projects Project.archived_projects @project.active?

Hi all, I have an array of shipping_type''s being returned, and I want to see what is in there. In the past I have done: shipping_type.include?(Cart::SHIPPING_TYPE_REGULAR).should be_true This works, but looks really ugly.. It just doesn''t roll of the tongue very well. I then looked up the use of Predicates, which I had been using, but hadn''t realized:

Still new to Specs... How do I create a spec to test a model method? Specifically, here is my spec: #testing model describe User do it "should have many user roles" do User.reflect_on_association(:user_roles).should_not be_nil end it "should have many roles though user roles" do User.reflect_on_association(:roles).should_not be_nil end it "should know

This is kind of a two part question. Question One: I want to be sure that an Order model is protecting sensitive attributes from mass assignment. The example looks like this: describe Order do it "should protect total attribute from mass assignment" do @order = Order.new(:total => 0.05) @order.total.should_not == 0.05 end end And the code to implement it: class Order

Hi! I just stumbled over a possible bug in 0.7.5.1: `1.should_not_be == 1` does not fail. I took a look into the code and figured out, that this is caused by Not.be() using :no_arg instead of :___no_arg. The expected argument of the method be() in Not is passed from should_not_be() with :___no_arg. Not.be() is marked with "Gone for 0.9", so I assume that "should_not_be =="

Hi, I keep facing problems with autotest, and I don''t know what''s happening in the background, is there anyway to know what''s happening while testing? Example: @user = User.new @user.email = "testcom" @user.errors.on(:email).should_not be_empty ...throws error failure - You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! - You might have expected an

Hello, Here is my *pdf_helper.rb* => http://pastebin.com/QU1kTKXk. I want to test, if self.create method can take more than two arguments. But, when I try to run my test. It showed *PdfHelper Should have two arguments Failure/Error: create_pdf.should_receive(object,template).with(user,file) NameError: undefined local variable or method `create_pdf'' for

Sprinkling my examples with ''lambda'' has always seemed like a bit of a wart to me. I''ve gotten into the habit of adding ''alias :calling :lambda'' to my spec suites. My examples then look like: calling { Foo }.should raise_error calling { Bar }.should_not raise_error Is there a reason that RSpec core has chosen not to make exception expectations more

Hi to everyone, I''m an RSpec, and BDD in general, newbie so in order to learn I have chosen to use my personal website as a tesbed. I''m having difficulties juggling with mocks, and in particula with the following code.
