assert_tag smells bad. Hpricot smells nice (apricotty!). Testing your views with Hpricot: http://www.lukeredpath.co.uk/index.php/2006/07/07/testing-your-rails- views-with-hpricot/ Big thanks to _why for a great little library! Feedback is appreciated. rSpec integration coming soon (hopefully!). Cheers, Luke Redpath contact@lukeredpath.co.uk -------------- next part -------------- An HTML

I''ve run into another functional testing issue. Odds are I''m taking the wrong approach, so I''m back to this list again in the hopes of finding the true path. with assert_tag, I''d like to check the values of various table cells and ensure that the proper values are placed in the appropriate places. I written some tests that make good sense to me, and in

Hi all, I''m fairly new to rails and ruby, but I''ve come across an interesting glitch and I''m not sure whether I''ve just got something wrong with my assumptions or if it really is an error in the underlying framework... I''ve created a bare-bones set of tests to show you where the problem is. What follows are the steps I went through to reproduce the

Sorry if this comes across as a bunch of disjointed thoughts...I''m just trying to put my thoughts down and I''d like to know what other people''s opinions on the subject are. I''ve been working with Rails for 3 or 4 months now and I''m constantly trying to look at ways of improving my testing techniques, especially when it comes to TDD. I have a few

Hi all, I can't seem to make assert_select work for the more complex cases for me. Here's a sample: # View <%= link_to_remote 'Add new', :url => new_phone_url, :submit => 'phones_head' %> # Generated code: <a href="#" onclick="new Ajax.Request('http://test.host/admin/parties/phone/new', {asynchronous:true, evalScripts:true,

Hi everyone, In an integration test I have assert_tag :content => /Quantity/ and this always fails, even though Quantity does exist in the html. Similarly, I have assert_no_tag :content => /Quantity/ , and this fails even when Quantity *doesn''t* exist in the html. Am I missing something here? Thanks Daniel

I''m having a strange problem with an rxml view - it won''t let me put hyphens in the names of XML elements. The original problem line was: xml.VISA-SSL do But in any other place, if I insert a hyphen into the name of any arbitrary element, I get the following kind of error: undefined method `theTextAfterTheHyphen'' for #<#<Class:0xb7617180>:0xb7616f28>

Why is my rxml view being wrapped by the rhtml template in views/ layouts? I was experimenting with REST, I had a nice little test program with one table: ''resources''. Here''s what the show method looks like: def show @resource = Resource.find(params[:id]) respond_to do |accepts| accepts.html accepts.xml end end I have a show.rhtml

There is a solution to use helpers from controllers ? I have an error : |undefined method `content_tag''| class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base def test return content_tag("a","test") end end

Probably dead obvious, but are there any assertions for easing testing of xml output, both for builder templates (for RSS feed -- something like a version of assert_tag) and for the new restful stuff. Couldn''t find anything relevant in the API. Cheers Chris

I''m using the functional test for a method like this: def test_create post :create, :phase => ''copynew'', :id => 1 assert_response :success assert_template ''create'' assert_tag :content => ''New Item'' assert_not_nil @item end This posts a request to the create method in the controller. Is there any way to look

Hi, i''m currently looking into a problem with the tests for ActionPack. 127 of them are failing on my windows machine. On Linux everything is working fine so far. I just wasted a good part of an hour trying to find the problem on windows...the solution is: Nitro and not Windows. I''m using Edge Rails and have no rails gem installed. On Windows I have the Nitro/Glue/Og gems

This is the first release of a new Ruby library for the www.bulksms.co.ukAPI which should allow simple integration of SMS functionality into your Ruby or Rails apps.

Hello, We are developing an commercial application that need to use an RTE. Someone know one RTE editor that can I use in an commercial application? We need basic functions to format paragrapher, bold, italic, ... I found FCKEditor but it is very expensive and weight. I found this list too but don''t know what is trustful: http://www.geniisoft.com/showcase.nsf/WebEditors Some

Since upgrading to 1.1.3 on our dev box, we''ve started to see random routing errors with our apps running under Mongrel in production mode. The errors seem to go away after a while but come back everytime we restart the server. This may be a mongrel problem, it may be a rails problem (I''ve posted a bug on the trac) and I was wondering if anybody else had had similar

I''m having a problem in Rails 2 where respond_to is always rendering the RXML view even in the HTML rendering response. Can anyone tell me why this might be happening? Here''s a code snippet: respond_to do |accepts| accepts.html accepts.xml { render :action => ''show.rxml'', :layout => false} end If I change this to the following it works fine:

I want to produce google maps KML files which are baiscally XML files with a KML extention. I''m using restful routes and respond_to. The best way I''ve found is to use respond_to do |format| format.kml { render :action => "kml" } will render a kml.rxml template I have but really I want to have action.rxml rendered for kml files. Is there are way to acheive this,

RJS templates are the only template type that are exempt from layout by default. Don''t you think it makes sense to add rxml to the list of exempt extensions? I''d assume most people would be surprised to see their XML embedded in the middle of their (most probably) rhtml layout. http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/trunk/actionpack/lib/ action_controller/base.rb:
