Hi, I need to post to a controller to log in a user in a functional test, but I''m not sure what to do to post to a separate controller.

Just playing around with converting an apps to the new REST goodness in edge rails, and I''m trying to work out how to convert/write the functional tests. Is the recommended way to explicitly use the actions (e.g. get :show, :id => ...; post :create,..., etc) and test the routes separately, or duplicate the request, in which case how is that done get "/", :id => 5

After *much* digging and playing around, I finally figured out how to unit test instance variables that are created by actions. It was more difficult than I expected. It seems like there should have been a more straight forward way to do this. Can someone enlighten me? A simplified and somewhat contrived example of what I am current doing: Thanks.

I''m using the acts_as_authenticated plug-in for my app. Now I need to get my functional tests to work properly. I have not written functional tests before so I''m unsure how to utilize setup so that all of my tests can use the login. My tests pass if I put login_as :user inside of each test, but that''s clearly not DRY. Can I add something to my test_helper.rb file or

Hello, While sending email notifications from ThoughtNotifier, I am getting weird exceptions, which sometimes occur on the production machine, but I haven''t been able to reproduce on my development machine.

Hi All, I need to run some reports via cron. I know I can use runner and call a method in a model class. But I''d really like to use templates and IMO this kind of logic belongs in a controller anyways. These are periodic reports so I don''t need nor want to leave a server running all the time, so getting the data via curl/wget isn''t really an option. What I really

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?

Hi, I am using gettext to let my web application know several languages. All works fine, but since I integrated it, my functional tests don''t work any more.

I tried to upgrade my existing application to RC2 last night. Like many, I use this mostly for running scheduled tasks. For the moment, I''ve abandoned the effort, but am looking forward to being able to use this. Feedback below: First, the reason I was looking forward to this upgrade was to use the threaded scheduler. I have an application with long-running tasks. I found that

People, I''m looking at p. 152 in the Rails book where he talks about testing controllers [ functional tests ]. First he shows a method, test_login_with_valid_user, which tests that it''s possible to login with a valid user/password combo.
