I am working with the authlogic gem and trying to create a simple login
test from cucumber features. The feature statement is:
Given the user is not logged in
The step definition for this is confounding me. In the
application_controller the authlogic tutorial recommends the following:
private
def require_user
unless current_user
store_location
flash[:notice] = "You must sign in to access this page"
redirect_to new_user_session_url
return false
end
end
def require_no_user
if current_user
store_location
flash[:notice] = "You must be logged out to access this page"
redirect_to account_url
return false
end
As these are private methods they are not directly accessible from the
step definitions and I am at a loss as to how to proceed. I could
augment the application controller with a public user_authenticated
method:
def user_authenticated
return true if current_user
false
end
But it seems wrong to alter the application code for no other purpose
than to ease testing. Is there another approach that I should be using?
