Hi Tim
I've just done *exactly* this. In fact, the way it works out, your
view spec doesn't have anything to do with how many items you have
displayed, that's a controller/model issue with the call to
Model.paginate. In fact my view spec actually just had 3 model mocks
to render, while the controller spec checked the call to
Model.paginate(:per_page => 10) (is it :per_page?) and the story
checked that the correct number got displayed. The view was dumb,
just the way it should be.
And also I had a login step like Jarkko - in fact the first step of
every story was "Given a signed in admin user".
