Hi!

I have trite signin system, like this:

> ApplicationController:
include SessionsHelper

private

helper_method :current_user

def current_user
 @current_user ||= User.find(session[:user_id]) if session[:user_id]
end


> SessionsHelper:
  def is_admin?
   @current_user && @current_user.id == 1
  end


> features/support/env.rb:
World(SessionsHelper)

So, if I test
> is_admin?.should be_true

it returns:

expected nil to be true (RSpec::Expectations::ExpectationNotMetError)
      ./features/step_definitions/users/add_user.rb:23:in `/^I should
signin$/'
      features/users/add_user.feature:13:in `And I should signin'

But I signed in! Why? What's the way to test authentication system from
scratch?

> that is added to cucumber's world does not have access to your

> controller's @current_user variable.

So, I understand this. But how I can avoid this defect?

If I paste def is_admin? into application_controller near current_user
method, I wouldn't can World(ApplicationController). If I copy
current_user  code to sessions_helper, then session[:user_id] wouldn't
work.
