Funnily enough, I tried this exact thing before I ended up with
put users_url( :user => User.find_by_username!(name) ), :user =>
{:administrator => true}
When I used the form that Pat provided
put users_url(user), :user => {:administrator => true}
then I saw this:
And the user named "myuser" enables the administrator role #

You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!

If I removed the enclosing parenthesis around my_user then I saw the
same thing.

Yes, and in rough form this is what I ended up doing. The step
definition I ended up with appears to be the correct method signature
and it is equivalent to the example you provide. It seems that the
first parameter to _put_ must be a hash.
Nonetheless, I cannot seem to duplicate the exact effect of an update
via the /account action (yes, I have repeated the test with put
account_url(... and obtained the same results as trying put
users_url(... )
