Hello.
I have a patch languishing in "insufficient tests" status. The bug
is http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5620#change-32352. I'm
making my first go at a test and i've run into a wall. Hoping someone
can point me in the right direction.
The method in question is below as pulled from the patched puppet/
provider/user/user_role_add.rb. All the patch consists of is the
line that reads "line_arr[2] = Time.now.to_i / 86400". I'm not able
to figure out how I can get the value associated with the variable
"line_arr[2]" or the value associated with "line" to complete my
test. Is it possible in rspec to ask for the value associated with a
variable that's localized to a method? Do I need to redo the patch so
that the lastchg value is set in a separate method and passed along
with cryptopw to the below method? Anyhoo any tips/pointers/ are
appreciated.
def password=(cryptopw)
begin
File.open("/etc/shadow", "r") do |shadow|
File.open("/etc/shadow_tmp", "w", 0600) do |shadow_tmp|
while line = shadow.gets
line_arr = line.split(':')
if line_arr[0] == @resource[:name]
line_arr[1] = cryptopw
line_arr[2] = Time.now.to_i / 86400
line = line_arr.join(':')
end
shadow_tmp.print line
end
end
end
File.rename("/etc/shadow_tmp", "/etc/shadow")
rescue => detail
fail "Could not write temporary shadow file: #{detail}"
Here is my go at the test
it "should update the lastchg field" do
@resource.stubs(:[]).with(:name).returns("username")
File.stubs(:readlines).with("/etc/shadow").returns(["#comment",
" nonsense", " ", "username:hashedpassword:6445:::::",
"other:pword:yay:::"])
here is where it breaks down. Not sure how to ask for the value
associated with "line_arr[2]" or "line" in the method.
end
TIA. Derek.
