Hi MarkYeah I was looking at that later on too. And yes if you use in a 'before' it does. Only setting in an 'it' block is ok.
I was using this as a quick test as we are on an older version of rspec and I was checking if it may have changed but this fails on 1.1.8
require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../spec_helper') describe PersonController do def mock_person(stubs={}) @person ||= mock_model(Person, stubs) end describe "GET" do before(:each) do mock_person(:name => "fred") end it "should have name fred" do @person.name.should == "fred" end it "should have name steve" do mock_person(:name => "steve") @person.name.should == "steve" end end describe "POST" do it "should have name steve" do mock_person(:name => "steve") @person.name.should == "steve" end it "should have name bob" do mock_person(:name => "bob") @person.name.should == "bob" end end end 1) 'PersonController GET should have name steve' FAILED expected: "steve", got: "fred" (using ==) ./spec/controllers/person_controller_spec.rb:21: Finished in 0.295898 seconds 6 examples, 1 failure On 16/10/2008, at 6:26 AM, Mark Wilden wrote:
I have a different question about the article (pity comments are closed).def mock_account(stubs={}) stubs = { :save => true, :update_attributes => true, :destroy => true, :to_xml => '' }.merge(stubs) @mock_account ||= mock_model(Account, stubs) endWith this helper, doesn't @mock_account only get set once inside its 'describe' block? Any future tests would use the same @mock_account, even if other stubs were designated.I'm probably missing something very obvious. ///ark _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
