Thanks David, but could you explain me how should I use this before do block in order to sign in an user? I am not a very experienced Rails developer and I tried different things like:
13 before :each do 14 # @member = Factory.create(:member) 15 request.env['warden'].stub(:authenticate!) { double(Member) } 16 sign_in @member 17 @person = Person.new 18 end which throws this error: RuntimeError in 'PeopleController Methods should render form for a new person on GET people#new' Could not find a valid mapping for /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/devise-1.0.8/lib/devise/mapping.rb:49:in `find_scope!' /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/devise-1.0.8/lib/devise/test_helpers.rb: 71:in `sign_in' /Users/damselem/Documents/Harvard/WebDev/hv_club/spec/controllers/ people_controller_spec.rb:16: Finished in 0.437813 seconds 23 examples, 1 failure Thanks David, and sorry for asking too much about this issue.
