What happens if you write the spec as a stock rails functional test?

$ rails generate test_unit:controller Users show

# in test/functionals/users_controller_test.rb
require "test_helper"
class UsersControllerTest < ActionController::TestCase
  test "show redirects to user path" do
    @user = Factory.build(:user, :id => '12341234')
    User.expects(:find).returns(@user)
    get "show", :id => @user.id
    assert_redirected_to user_path(@user)
  end
end
