I've the following search form with image_submit_tag instead of submit_tag. Now I get the obvious fail when cucumber runs: When I fill in "q" with "sachin" # features/step_definitions/web_steps.rb:33 And I press "submit" # features/s...

I have controller methods that look like this: class TestController < ApplicationController def testAction render :json => { 'success'=>1 }.to_json end end When I load this action in the browser, I get what I expect: {"success":1} When testing with RSpec, however, response.body gives me '<html><body>You are being <a href="htt...
I'm trying to test a plugin that i wrote by running: rake spec:plugins When i execute this command it appears that it drops my database tables (in my test DB) and then runs a migration without any plugins loaded to give me a clean database. This would normally be fine, but I am using a plugin that allows me to set index length limits ...
After installing rspec/ZenTest and running autospec, it runs my specs the first time as expected. After making a change to one of my specs and upon running the second time I get the following results: /usr/bin/ruby1.8 /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rspec-1.3.0/bin/spec --autospec /home/schambers/Projects/notebook/spec/models/user_spec.rb -...
I've run into this problem with testing. Let's assume I have two models, User and Post, where user has_many :posts. I'm trying to spec out a code block that includes something like this: user = User.find(123) post = user.posts.find(456) I know how to mock out the User.find and user.posts parts. The user.posts mock returns an array of...
Hi there, I've been using Rspec for a while and for some reason am receiving errors on a controller called ReferencesController. The error says that I have to specify the controller name by either using: describe MyController do or describe 'aoeuaoeu' do controller_name :my I've tried both variations: describe ReferencesC...
In my controller spec I am doing this: it "should create new message" do Client.should_receive(:create).with({:title => 'Mr'}) post 'create' , :client => {:title => "Mr" } end ... and in my controller I am doing ... def create client = Client.create(params[:client]) end However this is failing with the following error message...
I've just started looking at a project that has >20k unit tests written in Rspec (the project itself isn't written in Ruby; just the test cases). The current number of test cases is expected to grow dramatically in the future, as more functionality is added. What's already happened (over an extended period) is that RSpec started out be...
Below you can see that I'm calling File.open only once but rspec is telling me it received it 3 times. def self.import_file(filename) current_file = filename.split('/').last destroy_all(["filename = ?",current_file]) unpack_format = "A#{INPUT_FILE_FORMAT.map{|element| element[1]}.join("A")}" debugger File.open(filename, 'r')....
When running rspec I get the following error: no such file to load -- cucumber-rails /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `gem_original_require' /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:158:in `requi...
I've got a problem testing the following controller code: def publish if @article.publish flash[:notice] = "Article '#{@article.title}' was published." else # This is not tested flash[:error] = "Error publishing article." end redirect_to :action => :index end Where the function publish looks like that: def publish...
I did rake test:prepare and clone the db. Then when I do spec spec/controllers/file, it migrates the db every single time. Is that supposed to do that? I thought it was only supposed to migrate the dbs once. Thanks ...
Howdy, I'm having big trouble testing with rSpec's controller API. Right now I'm using a middleware authentication solution (Warden), and when I run the specs, the proxy added by the middleware is not there, and all the authentication tests are throwing NilPointerExceptions all over the place. It seems rSpec is not adding the middlewar...
This is what I have: it "should be able to get a valid directory path" do @asset.some_file_path.should == "/something/test.jpg" end The problem is that some_file_path returns "/not_here_yet.jpg" if there is no existing file. def some_file_path if File.exists(self.my_image_path) return my_image_path else return "/not_...
In the situation below the @crawl object DOES RECEIVE the crawl call, but the method mock fails ie: the method is not mocked. Does Thread somehow create its own copy of the @crawl object escaping the mock? @crawl.should_receive(:crawl).with(an_instance_of(String)).twice.and_return(nil) threads = @crawl.create_threads thread crea...
I am running an RSpec test on a model and getting errors for string methods such as: "index, "downcase," and "strip." Any ideas why that is and how I can fix it? ...
Total Rspec noob here. Writing my first tests tonight. I've got a model called Image. Using paperclip I attach a file called photo. Standard stuff. I've run the paperclip generator and everything works fine in production and test modes. Now I have a spec file called image.rb and it looks like this (it was created by ryanb's nif...
So I'm fairly new to ruby in general, and I'm writing some rspec test cases for an object I am creating. Lots of the test cases are fairly basic and I just want to ensure that values are being populated and returned properly. I'm wondering if there is a way for me to do this with a looping construct. Instead of having to have an asser...
I have some code that adds to the callbacks that rspec-rails adds by default to setup and teardown fixtures. My code looks something like: module Test module Unit class TestCase append_before(:each) do Test::Unit::AfterFixturesLoaded.custom_stuff1 end append_after(:each) do Test::Unit::AfterFixt...
