I'm trying to jump on the TDD/BDD bandwagon, but am having trouble
understanding how i should mock my user. The user has a habtm
relationship to a roles model (acl_system2 plugin), but I'm not sure
how to tell rspec about a model.
My code:
describe UsersController do
integrate_views
before(:each) do
@user = mock_model(User)
@user.stub!(:new_record?).and_return(false)
@user.stub!(:id).and_return(666)
@user.stub!(:email).and_return("[EMAIL PROTECTED]")
@user.stub!(:password).and_return("dummypassword")
User.stub!(:new).and_return(@user)
end
it "should login as a tutor" do
@user.stub!(:type).and_return("Tutor")
post :login, {:login => {:email => "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", :password
=> "teamup"}}
response.should redirect_to(:controller => "toolkit/overview",
:action => "index")
should_be_logged_in
end
it "should logout" do
get :logout
response.should redirect_to(:controller => "users", :action => "login")
should_not_be_logged_in
end
protected
def should_be_logged_in
response.session.should_not be_nil
session[:user].should_not be_nil
end
def should_not_be_logged_in
response.session.should_not be_nil
session[:user].should be_nil
end
end
Unfortunately, the actual method its testing works fine, but my test
is getting the following error:
"expected redirect to {:action=>"index",
:controller=>"toolkit/overview"}, got no redirect"
I am pretty sure it is because I haven't set the role attribute, but
I'm not sure how to establish that relationship using stubs. I tried
setting mock_model(User, :roles => mock(Role, :title => "tutor")) but
that didn't seem to matter.
Anyone able to shed some light on this for me?
Thanks.
