Hi! I'm trying to test the following (simplified) model:
class Allocation < ActiveRecord::Base scope :in_interval, (proc do |start_of_interval, end_of_interval| params = {:s => start_of_interval, :e => end_of_interval} where("(starts_at > :s AND starts_at < :e) OR (ends_at > :s AND ends_at < :e) OR (starts_at <= :s AND ends_at >= :e)", params) end) scope :on_day, (proc do |day| day = day.to_time.beginning_of_day in_interval(day, day + 1.day) end) # validations and other scopes... end I wrote a lot of specs for :in_interval - however testing :on_day is kind of problem. I don't want to duplicate any :in_interval specs - therefore I'm trying to stub :in_interval like this: let(:start_of_day) { Time.zone.now.beginning_of_day } it do Allocation.should_receive(:in_interval).with(start_of_day, start_of_day + 1.day).and_return("result") # working assertion - the :in_interval stub seems to get called as expected: # Allocation.on_day(start_of_day + 3.hours) # failing assertion: Allocation.on_day(start_of_day + 3.hours).should == "result" end RSpec Output: Failure/Error: Allocation.on_day(start_of_day + 3.hours).should == "result" NoMethodError: undefined method `includes_values' for "result":String I'm using Rails 3.0.4 and RSpec 2.5 (latest versions).
