I am building an Rails application where the forgot password feature is implemented. I need to write the test cases for it using RSpec. I am very new to RSPEC and got the basic idea of how rspec works from the tutorial and screencasts. But I am not sure how it can be tested for controllers. In my controller method if i am retrieving a user from database, then how would I test it using rspec. Do I give dummy data for testing rspec.?? Please find the example below.
In Usercontroller.rb def forgot_pass user = User.find_by_email(params[:email]) forget_pass = ForgetPassword.new forgetpass.userid = user.email forgetpass.status = true forgetpass.save! redirect_to login_url end In my password_reset_spec require 'spec_helper' describe "PasswordResets" do it "emails when user requesting password reset" do user=User.new forget_pwd = ForgetPassword.new #forget_pwd.userid.should == "pradeep" #forget_pwd.token.should == "123456" forget_pwd.userkey = "14dd" visit auth_index_path click_link "Forgot Password" fill_in "Email", :with=> 'pradeep83.a...@gmail.com' click_button "Submit" current_path.should eq(login_path) page.should have_content("A verification mail has been sent to your email id. Click on the confirmation link to change the password") last_email.to.should include('pradeep83.a...@gmail.com') end end In the test how do I test whether the user exists and assign the attributes. In my case, user = User.find_by_email(params[:email]) forgetpass.userid = user.email Please help as I am newbie in Rspec -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
