similar to: flash.now in functional tests

Is there any way in a functional test to get the value of the flash hash if the value was set using flash.now? It doesn''t appear to be visible in flash in the test.

Hi all, I am using the LoginGenerator and Ezra''s acl_system2 to protect certain actions in my controllers.

What''s the best way to test the flash when you use flash#now ? For example, if I set the flash in my controller: flash.now[:notice] = ''This will only show up on this action.'' How do I test it? Normally I would do: assert_equal ''This will only show up on this action.'', flash[:notice] But this doesn''t seem to work with flash.now. Any

Hi, Some controller filters: before_filter :require_logged_in, :only => [:create, :new, :confirm] before_filter :init_players, :only => [:create, :new, :confirm] The first one, you guessed it, redirects a user if he''s not logged in.

I''m having some trouble with functional tests for a Rails application. I recently upgraded to version 1.1.2 of Rails and I have since noticed that I have a problem with flash notices in my functional tests.

Hi, Just thought it was weird that Ruby doesn''t automatically cast ints to floats. Seems so un-rubyish irb(main):006:0> 12/16 => 0 irb(main):007:0> 12.to_f / 16.to_f => 0.75 Jeroen

But it occurred to me recently that

People, I''m trying to run the ruby debugger against a Test::Unit::TestCase class which is a parent of a Rails class.
