I wrote a replacement for testAction that does it the Mark Story way. You can find info here: http://42pixels.com/blog/testing-controllers-the-slightly-less-hard-way
It uses what I learned from Mark and Matt and kind of combines that information into something a little more DRY. It also allows you to use Mocks and read directly from the models after testing the action. hth, jeremy On Aug 10, 12:37 pm, Hugo M <[email protected]> wrote: > I found a pseudo-nice way in this > page:http://www.scribd.com/doc/19344870/Super-Awesome-Advanced-CakePHP-Tips > > 2010/8/10 Hugo M <[email protected]> > > > > > I've seen tutorials about using mock objects but I want to use the function > > testAction, and the tutorials I've seen don't use that funcion. > > > They create its own functions and instanciate controllers and I think > > that's not the cakephp way.
