Not seeing the failure
All, I''m missing something simple, I think. I am writing a spec to say that my CouponController should create a new coupon from the form parameters, then set the current user. Here''s the spec: describe CouponController, "When posting to save_coupon" do before(:each) do @expectedName = "pepper''s" @expectedAmount = 5 coupon =

.html.erb files and autotest
When I work with a .html.erb file, the autotest rspec on rails stuff doesn''t understand the file to map it to the right test. I wanted to submit a patch for this, but I''m unsure where the specs would be to update. I found the necessary mapping in rspec_autotest.rb, but I can''t find any specs anywhere. Help? I just need to have /app/views/coupon/index.html.erb to map to

OT local version control?
Hi, all, This isn''t about rspec, but this list has people whose opinions I respect. So, I''m looking for a new version control system for my local development. I was going to install subversion, but I''ve heard rumors of people using some newer ones. Thoughts? I''d like to be able to run it either locally or on a home server. If I run it off a home server, then

Testing that a model helper method is called
So, I have a plugin that adds a method to ActiveRecord::Base, let''s call the method is_encrypted. class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base is_encrypted end So, my question is, how do I write a spec to show that is_encrypted is called here? I would rather not write specs that say that the behavior is there, since I have tested the behavior already in my plugin. Thanks. -Corey --

Multiple should_receive(:render).with
I''m trying to specify that a particular view must render two different partials. My spec looks like: describe AClass do it do template.should_receive(:render).with(:partial => ''foo'', :locals => { ... }) ... end describe ''some conditional case'' do it do template.should_receive(:render).with(:partial =>

textmate bundle
Hi, I''m just getting e set up on my machine, and I was wondering if someone could point me to the current rspec bundle for textmate? I googled and found a million of them, I think.

ExampleGroup and SharedExampleGroup relationship(?)
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)

ApplicationHelper
When working with views, I use instance methods of ApplicationHelper: # app/helpers/application_helper.rb: module ApplicationHelper def distribute(total, min, cutof, list) [1,2,3] end end # app/views/planner/_mta_colors.rhtml: <td> <% ... dist = distribute(total_v_px, 4, 0, colors.collect{|color| color[1]}) ... %> So to test the distribute method in ApplicationHelper, I have

ridding away with do_request
I''m heading out of town, but had a quick thought I wanted to share. Rather then using ambiguous named request helpers in controller specs like "do_request", I''ve been using more readable helpers like "post_create". For example... describe ProjectController do def post_create post :create, ... end before do end it "creates a new

Story testing views in isolation
Hi, I''ve been investigating plain text stories, and I had a quick question. How would I go about creating story tests for views in isolation, instead of the full stack? I had hoped to be able to do a straight render ''/'', but it says it can''t find the method. The reason that I want to do this is that I want to give our designer/business people a way to write

Which taggable library do people use?
I''d like to add taggability to a model in the site I''m working on, and I wanted to get an idea of what people are using. I keep seeing that acts_as_taggable is deprecated, so I tried the acts_as_taggable_on_steroids. I also tried be_taggable. In any case, I figured I''d see what people use. thanks. -corey -- http://www.coreyhaines.com The Internet''s Premiere

mocking successive return values
I''m having a problems mocking successive return values. I don''t know if I''m doing something wrong or if this is a limitation of rspec mocks. Any ideas of what I may be doing wrong? I''m trying to test the generate_quote_number method. It generates a quote number, looks to see if it is in the db already. If it is, it calls itself to try again. I want

Oh inheritacne, wherefore art thou
Is there anyway to achieve inheritance of specifications? Suppose I had an action like def index filter = params[:filter] ? params[:filter] : ''%'' order = params[:order] ? params[:order] : ''created_at DESC'' @posts = Post.find(:conditions => "title LIKE #{filter}", :order => order) ... end Now I might have half a dozen specs for this

Specifing methods in a steps_for block
Hey list, I''m refactoring some much-used functionality into a common_steps step group. Methods like this are in there: steps_for :common do Given "a number of existing $types?" do |type| @initial_item_count = type.singularize.classify.constantize.count end When "the user adds an invalid $type" do |type| post
