Hello all. I'm working with rails and came to a situation that i cannot imagine how to test this.
Given i have an index action that retrieves me a collection of objects. But some of them have especific permissions. My index action act like this: - retrieve public objects. - retrieve permission 1 objects. - retrieve permission 2 objects. So i have to write 3 tests. it "should retrieve public objects" context "permission 1" it " should retrieve permission 1 objects" context "permission 2" it "should retrieve permission 2 objects" Until here no problems because only conditional tests and method calls. But how i would test the "Index.retrieve_objects_from_permission1" ? supose i have class Index < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :permissions def self.retrieve_objects_from_permission1 Index.all(:conditions => "permissions.id = 1", :include => :permissions) end def has_permission1 !self.permissions.find_by_id(1).nil? end end My Index.retrieve_objects_from_permission1 would be: it "should retrieve objects that have permission 1" do @collection = Index.retrieve_objects_from_permission1 @collection.each do |c| c.has_permission1.should == true end end Is it right? ( I didn't see it before on other's code, so i don't think it's right.) Sorry for my poor english. i hope I have been clear enough. Thank you :) _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
