I didn''t find exactly an answer on this one, so I''d like to get a clarification from folks who live & breathe HABTM. class foo has_and_belongs_to_many :bars end class bar has_and_belongs_to_many :foos end (and yes, I have a bars_foos table in my db) def test_habtm bar = Bar.new foo = Foo.new foo.bars<<bar assert !foo.bars.empty? assert

I''m using Rails 1.1.x and it looks like the check_box form helper expects me to provide and object and method so it can determine if the checkbox should be checked or not. I''m having a couple of issues with this. note: I''m using UserEngine and adding a HABTM so that: class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :foos end class foo <

Hey all - The trunk currently supports three types of mocking/stubbing: Mock Objects (created dynamically at runtime) Partial Mocking of methods on existing classes Stubbing of methods on existing objects or classes The main difference between Partial Mocking and Stubbing is that Stubs don''t verify. I''m wondering if we really need the stubbing facility at all, given that we

I''m yet another person looking to do some background Rails processing. >From post & the wiki, it looks like I should be using RailsCron. So I''m about to start playing. In parallel, I''d like to get some opinions re: database access. I have a table that I''d like to re-fresh periodically in the background. Is it safe, using RailsCron, to be accessing

My app uses account_location to set up subdomains as account keys. In my controllers, all my model operations are scoped through the @current_person object. The question is: How do I test this with RSpec''s mocking and stubbing? Basically, I need to test that @current_person.things is getting the find message and returning @thing. I''ve tried stubbing and mocking

I''m new to mocking and stubbing. Can someone help me out with the following? I don''t exactly know why this spec is failing: describe "GET /users/1/terms" do controller_name :terms setup do @user = mock_model(User) User.stub!(:find).and_return(@user) end def do_get get :index, :user_id => 1 end it "should find all terms

Hello, As I''m becoming more and more familiar with mocking/stubbing, I''m going back to some of my model specs and revaluating how I wrote them. I have certain models in which validation requires the presence of an associated model, which itself needs to be valid(validates_presence_of and validates_associated). When I wrote the specs, I wrote helpers for the attributes instead

Mocha''s mock/stub framework has the ability to stub all methods on a mock given. Does RSpec''s mocking framework have this ability? And if not, is there some reason it shouldn''t be implemeneted? Regards, Scott

OK, perhaps I wasnt clear in my previous posting. I am looking for either a SRPM for the CentOS 5.2 centos.plus kernel, or more likely, a diff from the kernel at kernel.org. I was pointed to the wiki, which MENTIONED a Source RPM, but didnt point to anywhere to find these for CentOS. All Ive been able to find are ISO's . I really dont need a bunch of tools that will complicate the problem,

All, Inspired by a conversation on the mocha list, I added the ability to mix stubs w/ mocks on the same methods. Here''s what it allows: context "a mock" do specify "can stub! and mock the same message" do mock = mock("stubbing mock") mock.stub!(:msg).and_return(:stub_value) mock.should_receive(:msg).with(:arg).and_return(:mock_value)

Im trying to get a diskless boot set up under CentOS 5.2, and having no luck at all. I am to the point of running system-config-netboot, and whatever information I put in, I get an error message. Responding to the 2nd button on the first popup, which asks for NFS info, I put in the IP address of the current machine (the machine that will hold the boot images for the diskless machine) and the

Hi! I know you must be answering a lot of basic questions, sorry about that :-) However I have not get it, how do you keep mocks updated without pain? I reached to the point where mocking things for view. I spec model-controller-view using "correct doc" way mocking-stubbing (plus I should run integration test to be sure that everything really works together). Now, when I want to

What is the general opinion about fixtures versus mocking and stubbing in model specs? I heard from agile on IRC that they save the database testing for integration testing, but I also see that the caboose sample applicaiton uses fixtures. I also noticed that on the rspec site, it says "Ironically (for the traditional TDD''er) these are the only specs that we feel should actually

All, Brian Takita has been contributing to a stubs branch to support stubbing and partial mocking on Modules (and therefore classes). I tweaked the syntax a bit and merged it into the trunk, so you can update from the trunk and check out the new stubbing/mocking love. If you prefer to wait for a release, there should be one coming soon-ish (I''m aiming for later this week). As Brian

Application: DWFViewer.exe Wine 0.9.14 - mandriva 2006.0 This is Autocad's "free" viewer program for dwf files. I had to install IE6 first as a pre-requisite. I used the Wine recommended method of adding that one dll to the windows/system32 directory then ran ie6setup.exe to install it. The DWFViewer installed fine, but then when trying to run it this message came up: This

What is the difference between these two ways of mocking (with and without the string): mock(''Object'') and mock(Object) ? Scott

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has already developed a mocking approach to stub out the Paypal interface so that one can test on an internal PC which doesn''t provide a means for PayPal to callback to your webserver? (i.e. once the app is deployed to the hosting provider it would then work as PayPal could then hit the application with the specified URL). Anyone already solved this? What

I am using the acts_as_state_machine plugin to control state of an object in my app, however when testing this I need to be able to stub out the guard conditions so that state will change when I fire off an event without depending on other models. Guard conditions simply return true or false so I have an instance method: def encoded? <check state of other objects> return true

Fairly high level question here. I''m using LoginEngine & UserEngine with success. My application needs to track user preferences, which includes some associations with my models. Should I be extending the UserEngine model(s) and adding my own attributes? This means adding a lot to a plugin, including extending controllers and views. Or should I be creating my own
