Hi,
This is probably straightforward to solve. I'm new to rspec so I hope
you'll be patient with me. I've created a model method which works in
practice, but which rspec is not passing. I'm obviously not going
about things in the right way in rspec so I'd appreciate any advice
offered.
Here's the (releveant parts of the) method which sets up a one to many
relationship between Company and Projects.
def.self create_project(record)
parent_company = Company.find_by_basecampid(record.company.id)
project = self.find_or_initialize_by_basecampid(record.id)
project.company_id = parent_company.id
end
In rspec I've got this:
def parent_company_attributes
{
:id => 1,
:basecampid => 448718,
:name => "The Media Collective"
}
end
before do
mock_record
Company.should_receive(:find_by_basecampid).
with(parent_company_attributes[:basecampid]).
and_return(parent_company_attributes)
@project = Project.create_project(record)
end
it "should populate company_id" do
@project.company_id.should eql(parent_company_attributes[:id])
end
The problem is that it looks like rspec is using the object id rather
than the id from parent_company_attributes. Here's the failure
message:
1)
'Project.create project record should populate company_id' FAILED
expected 1, got 8817400 (using .eql?)
Thanks for any insights
David Currin
