And following up on David's reply, I don't think you should, Lei. What you really should be testing that the observable effects of the call are 'as if' the super call were made. If you could test that the super call was made it would be testing that the implementation were a certain way more than the behavior of the object, and that's the road to writing brittle tests. -- Rick DeNatale Blog: http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/ Github: http://github.com/rubyredrick Twitter: @RickDeNatale WWR: http://www.workingwithrails.com/person/9021-rick-denatale LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/rickdenatale _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
