Okay, I guess I can do this with shared examples. I added to my
spec_helper.rb:
describe "an admin user is signed in", :shared => true do
before( :each ) do
@admin_user = Factory(:admin_user)
login_as @admin_user
end
end
and then in each controller that needs that behavior:
it_should_behave_like "an admin user is signed in"
Good enough. I had myself going in circles because I was trying to use
a :type and global before behavior, and I think that doesn't work at all
how I was expecting it to.
Can :type be anything? Or is it limited to some set of values (e.g.
:controller, etc)?
Thanks,

work the way I think it should.
I have a set of controllers that are used only by administrative
users, so login is required. To run examples just against the
functionality, ideally I'd like to be able to set up a before() that
would log an admin user in before each example.
I tried putting it in as a global in spec_helper.rb:
Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
...etc...
config.before(:each) do
@admin_user = Factory(:admin_user)
login_as @admin_user
end
...etc...
but it really seems like it's being executed in the configure context,
not the controller context (for example, session[] isn't defined yet,
etc).
Any recommendations?
