Ok, maybe I'm being particularly thick, but I've been trying to find
the solution to this for a couple of hours now and I just can't seem
to be able to do it...
I'm trying to write a step as such:
Given("user $email is logged in") do |email|
user = User.find_by_email(email)
session[:user_id] = user.id
end
This is the way it would look in specs... but all I seem to be
getting, depending on whether I write it as @session,
@controller.session, session, request.session, @request.session,
etc... is errors like:
NoMethodError: You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
The error occurred while evaluating nil.session
./matchers/navigation_steps.rb:4:in `user $email is logged in'
Or variations such as:
NoMethodError: You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
You might have expected an instance of ActiveRecord::Base.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.[]=
./matchers/navigation_steps.rb:4:in `user $email is logged in'
... What am I doing wrong?
I've for the time being gotten around this problem (thanks to pd's
suggestion on #rspec) by making the spec run through the sign up and
email confirmation process, which does sign in the user into the
session... but that seems a little over-verbose?)
Any help would be most welcome.
Daniel
