Pat, thanks. That helped. I'm now trying to get my head around the error:
Spec::Mocks::MockExpectationError in 'AddressesController handling GET
/addresses/1 should be successful'
Mock 'Address_1006' received unexpected message :find with ("1")
My show method in the addresses controller:
def show
@address = @company.addresses.find(params[:id])
respond_to do |format|
format.html # show.html.erb
format.xml { render :xml => @address }
end
end
In the controller spec:
describe AddressesController, "handling GET /addresses/1" do
before do
@address = mock_model(Address)
@company = mock_model(Company)
Company.stub!(:find_by_id).and_return(@company)
@company.stub!(:addresses).and_return(@address)
end
def do_get
get :show, :id => "1", :company_id => "1"
end
it "should be successful" do
do_get
response.should be_success
end
....
I know that @company.stub!(:addresses).and_return(@address) is incorrect.
I'm trying to work out how I can stub out:
@address = @company.addresses.find(params[:id])
Thanks for any pointers.
