Yup! But in my specs, when the controller method calls #parse , the stub should consume the method call. > One thing which strikes me is that if Rails naming conventions were > being followed: > > 1) the file name be lib/ad_sense_heaven_parser not lib/adsense_heaven_parser Normally, the file would be named like that. However, the class represents a service called "AdSense Heaven", which doesn't have a space between "Ad" and "Sense"...or should that still cause the file to be named "ad_sense_..."? > 2) the require wouldn't be needed since it would be autoloaded. I thought that everything in lib/ should be autoloaded. When I found that lib/adsense_heaven_parser.rb wasn't being autoloaded, I figured I was wrong, and simply #require'd it in. > Perhaps the problem lies there somewhere. That's a good idea. I'll look into it and let you know. Thanks, Nick _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
