What's the difference between these two forms, in a spec file?
get '/prefix/resources' # get index of resources
get :index # get index of resources
I have some tests that work one way, some that work the other way, and seems
like none work any way but the way they're presently written. But I'm
perilously close to having to try a form at random until I find which one works!
A bit more specifically,
In spec/controllers/some_resource_controller_spec.rb, I have
> describe SomeResourcesController do
> describe "some behavior" do
> it "should return index of SomeResources" do
> get :index
(Using the path form here results in 'No route matches
{:controller=>"some_resources", :action="/some_resources"}')
But in spec/integration/some_others_resource_spec.rb, I have
> describe "some other resource" do
> describe "GET /some_others"
> it "should return index of SomeOthers" do
> get "/some_others"
(Using the symbol form here results in 'bad argument(expected URI object or URI
string)'.)
Is it the difference between living in controllers/ vs. integration/ that
determines the get form? Or the difference in whether I name the class in the
outermost "describe"? Something else? Some combination?
