similar to: user engine: Role.count() is zero in tests

I just updated my Rails install to the most current Edge and my controller specs fail: 1) TypeError in ''The User Controller should be a user controller'' can''t convert nil into String Each spec fails the same way. <context string> <spec string> can''t convert nil into String Any ideas what''s up with this? Thanks, s.ross

Hi all, I just released RSpec 0.7.3. It''s got a few bug fixes and the rails plugin *should* run against both Rails 1.1.6 and 1.2.0-RC1. If you run into problems, please report bugs and feature requests in the tracker at rubyforge: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?group_id=797 Cheers, David

I''m trying to get the login/user engine combo up and working and am having difficulties. I got the login engine up and running fine, no problems. Now, on to the user engine. After fixing the needed stuff in the bootstrap task so it loads I''m able to login as the default admin ok. BUT none of the views/controllers that are in login/user_controller are being overridden by the

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 just did an update to lates trunk ================= context "Given a generated venue_spec.rb with fixtures loaded" do fixtures :venues specify "fixtures should load two Venues" do Venue.should have(2).records end end ================== gives me ========== 1) TypeError in ''Given a generated venue_spec.rb with fixtures loaded fixtures should load two

I am trying to perform a test unit, using FactoryGirl include ActionDispatch::TestProcess FactoryGirl.define do factory :article do ....... photo { fixture_file_upload ''/files/test.jpg'', ''image/jpg'' } end end IN mt test_helper.rb I defined the fixture_path def fixture_path File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/fixtures/" #

Hi all, I had some specs that were using fixture_file_upload that were passing just fine. Then I froze edge rails to get some 2.0 functionality, then a I upgraded to trunk rspec to deal with uninitialized constant ActionView::Helpers::JavaScriptMacrosHelper After a couple other of tribulations, I have now gotten down to just a couple of not passing specs, all using the fixture_file_upload.

Hi, For my app i need to generate pdf file for reports. I am trying the railspdf plugin, got it installed using command: ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/railspdfplugin/railspdf/ The problem is that when i re-started my webrick it won''t run, with errors messages like this (shown only first message): *D:/InstantRails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.2.5

Hi experts, I picked up a copy of the rspec book and wrote some tests in spec/lib and spec/models for my Rails 2.3.8 code. I was using rspec 2.5.1, rspec-core 2.5.0, rspec-expectations 2.5.0 et. al. But I realised that the rspec-rails version I am using is meant for Rails3. Which version of rspec-rails should I use for Rails 2.3.8? Best, Radhesh -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Given this code (which renders rjs), I''m faced with the fixture- driven way of spec-ing or mocking. How the heck to you mock this so the code at line (2) and (4) work right? I''m still struggling with mocks but it seems like this can be done. Forgive the naivety of this question. 1. def change_quantity 2. @line_item = LineItem.find_by_id(params[:id]) 3. unless

Hello, After moving into the HEAD of rspec, I am greeted with a mountain of errors, which I expected, due to my specs not being migrated. I use hpricot for a lot of my view tests, as it is extremely simple to traverse the DOM with it. I used to include HpricotSpecHelper in spec_helper.rb, like so: require ''hpricot_spec_helper'' module Spec module Rails module Runner

Hi, I''m trying to setup a mock for my controller test but I can''t get it to recognise the mock. I use it "should find all users" do User.should_receive(:find).with( :all, :limit => 10 ).and_return([@user]) do_get end and in the controller @users = User.find(:all, :limit => 10 ) But this does not work. It gives me User expected :find with (:all)

I want to use mocks and stubs to test the controller, but am having trouble getting my validation not to trigger. Here''s the code: # spec: Image.stub!(:find).and_return(@image) @image.should_receive(:save!).once.with(:any_args) put :update, :id => @image.id, :category_id => @category.id, :image => {:name => ''test'', :image_number =>

Guys, I''ve created a plugin, i wanna put my automated test there. However, I got bad file descriptor error when i run the test like normal unit test file: "ruby plugins/acts_as_fox/test/acts_as_fox_test.rb" How to test a plugin? Also, is it right to say that I should only put my unit tests (but not functional test for example) for the plugin in the plugin test folder?

Hello, I have recently upgraded to the 0.8.2 release of rSpec, and I am receiving the following message with each view spec execution: WARNING: there is no transaction in progress I have upgraded the rspec_on_rails plugin as well, and both the model and controller tests are working flawlessly. Is there some simple step I missed? thanks for the input. -Chris -------------- next part

I''ve created an array of hashes in UserController#initialize to describe a menu: @menu_array = [ {:menu => ''home'', :controller => ''home'', :action => ''send_home''}, {:menu => ''user list'', :action => ''list''}, {:menu => ''login'', :controller =>

I am currently trying to get Rspec to work with ScenarioFixtures. http://code.google.com/p/fixture-scenarios/ http://errtheblog.com/post/7708 I did a quick search and didn''t find any mention that any one else had gotten this to work yet. If i missed something, could you please drop me a line. Otherwise, expect a progress report when i get this working... Bret -------------- next part

I am setting up an AR mock object and wanted to sanity check it. My intent is to mix this into all my examples and then override/add methods where necessary. Note that I''ve anticipated three cases for find: find with one numeric argument => object find with :all => Array find with anything else => nil This roughly approximates how ActiveRecord::find works in this case

I have a bunch of fixtures designed to populate the database for my Cucumber integration tests. But at this stage I want my database to be empty when using Rspec. So, I moved the fixtures from `/spec/fixtures` to `features/support/fixtures`, and updated `features/support/env.rb` to read: Fixtures.reset_cache fixtures_folder = File.join(RAILS_ROOT, ''features'',

RSpec-ers: I''m aware this is quite the FAQ. I have probably asked it myself, but I just can''t Google up anything but others asking it. I grabbed the source to Beast, to use as a Rails project uninfluenced by me, or RSpec. Then I installed the CURRENT version of RSpec and rspec_on_rails, and set up a model spec on Post. Here''s the spec_helper.rb lines:
