I have a GroupController class that inherits from a SecuredController
which have a before filter (before_filter :login_required). This is
using the restul authentication system. I want to mock out the
login_required method so that my GroupController actions don't get
redirected to /sessions/new but I cant figure it out. Here is what I
have so far that doesn't work. Any help would be most appreciated.
require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../spec_helper'
describe GroupsController do
before(:each) do
# mock and stub the Group model methods
@group = mock_model(Group)
Group.stub!(:search_with_paginate).and_return(@group)
# since this is a secured controller, we have to mock the security system
too
@current_user = mock_model(User, :id => 1)
self.stub!(:login_required).and_return(:false)
self.stub!(:current_user).and_return(@current_user)
end
def do_get
get :index
end
it "should be successful" do
assigns[:page] = 1
assigns[:search] = ""
do_get
puts response.headers
response.should be_success
end
end
The error I get is
NoMethodError in 'GroupsController should be successful'
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.[]=
