tests and login_engine
Hi there,
I just started writing tests today after some months of using rails (slap wrists).
I seem to be getting the hang of things, but I''m hitting a wall when it comes to functional_testing pages protected by login_engine/user_engine.
all my assertions come back with:
Expected response to be a <:success>, but was <302>
Is there a way I can login from within a test?

wondering how to do some clever DRYing up
Hi there,
I''m now getting to the point in my rails app where I can use all of the nice basic features like AJAX and engines etc...
but, I want to get my hands a bit dirtier, whilst learning to DRY up my code a bit.
I''m using AJAX quite a bit to dynamically populate/edit/sort has_many relationships in forms, and consequently on a model with many has_many''s I end up

innodb vs myisam
Hi,
I have been using myisam tables in mysql with rails because my client will soon want fulltext searchable content, however when I migrated my development db from schema.rb all of the tables generated were innodb. I understand that I can override this, but also like the transactions and foreign keys of innodb. So 2 questions really:
1. are transactions in activerecord dependent on innodb or do

load testing
hi,
does anyone have any pointers for load testing an app running on apache2 with fastcgi?
I have an app running circa 3000 page requests per day, most of which are static pre-cached files and fastcgi seems to be coping well so far (crosses fingers) but I would like to be able to work out my server limit.
Currently I have the following in my apache conf:

name_url in tests
Hi there,
I posted earlier asking about testing named routes in functional tests, but got no response, so I''m making my question less specific.
It seems from the docs that it''s possible to to test named routes in cases such as:
asserts_redirect_to name_url(:param => "whatever")
but I haven''t seen any mention of it being used with any other tests and I keep

using unique varchar instead of id
Hi,
I just signed up so ''hello everybody''.
As the title suggests, I was wondering if there was an easy way to specify that I want all actions/controls to be based upon a particular parameter rather than :id (in this case :unique_name). I don''t :id to appear in URLs or elsewhere, I want it all to work from :unique_name.
It seems like something that I should be able to

handling file upload onto local filesystem.
Hi,
I have a multipart form upload field uploaded through <%=
file_field("profile", "profile") %>
Once a submit happens, the action basically does something like:
profile = Profile.new(params["picture"])
This invokes the models = to method:
def picture=(picture_field)

limiting options in file_upload
Does anyone know if it''s possible to set constraints to the size & type of file that file_column will accept?
I''d like to limit to image files of less than 2MB.
If this isn''t possible with file_column, is there a graceful way of getting the controller to handle it?
thanks

mysql dates
does anyone know of a way to make the date_helper deal with mysql dates with 00 values in them?
I have lots of dates that are like the following:
2005-04-00
2005-00-00
and I need to set null values in a date_select for elements that are 00. These are valid dates in mysql.
In the absence of an immediate solution to the above, I''ve been trying to find out how InstanceTag.new works so I can

template/variable confusion
Hi there,
I''m having some trouble working out where/when I can define template variables.
I have a standard.rhtml layout template which is used across the application as the main xhtml wrapper.
Inside there is some code like this:

file_column imagemagick strangeness
Hi,
I''m using the basic magick features of file_column,
and while files are uploading fine without the magick options, as soon as I do something like
:magick => { :size => "400x600" }
I get an ''invalid file'' error.
Further investigation reveals that the file is in fact invalid because something somewhere is truncating the file path:
