Hi all;
Should Hobo's home_page method be returning a trailing "/" as well to be
consistent with route helpers (i.e. "http://test.host/";)
Here's why I'm asking: Something simple tripped me up for a while with a
Controller test.
My test:
describe TitlesController do
it "Regular user should not be able to see Titles index" do
controller_test_signin @user #Defined in test_helper.rb
get :index
assert_redirected_to( root_url )
end
In my environment/test.rb file, I have
Rails.application.routes.default_url_options[:host] = 'test.host'
to satisfy url_for's demand for a 'host to link' to
(*ArgumentError: Missing host to link to! Please provide the :host
parameter, set default_url_options[:host], or set :only_path to true*)
However, running this controller test using was giving me:
*Expected response to be a redirect to <http://test.host/> but was a
redirect to <http://test.host>*
(Notice the absence of the "/" at the end of the actual redirect url?)
I tracked it down to my use of Hobo's home_page method in a before_filter I
had in my ApplicationController:
def lto_only
if !current_user.administrator? && !current_user.officer?
redirect_to home_page
return
end
It turns out that to get my assert_redirected_to test to pass, this needed
to be:
def lto_only
if !current_user.administrator? && !current_user.officer?
redirect_to root_url
return
end
Of course, my use of root_url requires me to have 'root' defined in my
routes.rb file.
root :to => 'front#index'
