i am trying out minitest, but need some advice on a clean way to test validations.
I setup my testing to use minitest by following the following railscast plus i added miniskirt for Factories. http://railscasts.com/episodes/327-minitest-with-rails everything works well, but there has to be a cleaner way of testing failed validations. would i be better off using something besides "must_raise"? if not, is there a way to make a helper function or something to clean this up so it is more readable? ----------------------------------------------------------- require "minitest_helper" describe User do it "rejects a bad password in validation" do user = Factory.build(:user, :password_confirmation => 'Not my password') failed_val = lambda { user.save! } failed_val.must_raise ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid error = failed_val.call rescue $! error.message.must_include "Password doesn't match confirmation" end end --------------------------------------------- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
