Check out the ActionView tests. Here's the tag helper tests, for example: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/browser/trunk/actionpack/test/template/tag_helper_test.rb The url_for tests require a controller, so you'll see some of them creating fake controllers with the bare minimum defined. -- Rick Olson http://techno-weenie.net _______________________________________________ Rails-core mailing list Rails-core@lists.rubyonrails.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails-core
