I'm in the same boat - trying to test a helper that uses the

Need controller and action!

is there a way to tell the rspec-rails helper examples that the
request that called the specified helper was to a certain controller?
anyone have a clean way of doing this?
Yeah looking back I never did get any help with this one, did I?
I personally sorted the situation out by cleaning up the code (it was
a bit legacy) such that I could use named routes instead. I never
really got to the bottom of how the implicit :controller stuff worked,
especially in the context of an RSpec ExampleGroup, and it seemed
cleaner to be using a named route. Probably easier said than done
though.
There's also a trick in this thread that might just help you:

Hi all,
I've been cleaning up our routing file, and removed the default
map.connect ":controller/:action" route.
It's thrown up a bunch of sloppy mistakes, which is great, but I also
think I've found a problem with the view specs.
We have a generic navbar partial which is rendered in the index page
of several different controllers. The navbar contains some call to
link_to of the form:
<%= link_to "By Concert", :sort => 'by_concert' %>
Since I removed the default (catch-all) route, this fails in the view
specs:
No route matches {:action => "index", :sort => "by_concert"
At runtime, rails seems to figure out the controller as well, and we
get a full URL built fine.
I tried adding this to my specs
params[:controller] = "images"
but nothing changed. I've worked around it by also doing this in the
view:
<%= link_to "By Concert", :controller =>
params[:controller], :sort
=> 'by_concert' %>
This seems kind of dirty... and it's also weird that I can't seem to
be able to fake the context that the views render in at runtime.
What do other people do with this sort of problem? Am I missing
something obvious?
cheers,
Matt
