Joao, I am not sure you getting testing right! everytime you find something like this that looks hard to test, maybe you should rethink your tests.
I Would for example on controller testing, which is functional, be more worried to test, if the function did what it was supposed to and on the features/request tests check if my applications is working correctly with js. I am not sure for this example but just a little tip from what I have seen in testing before! all the best, Andre On Friday, 2 August 2013 00:47:59 UTC+2, João Pereira wrote: > > > I found the the xml_http_request or alias xhr for that > > test "should render js to show the change password form" do > sign_in_user > > xhr :get, :enable_password_change > > assert_template :enable_password_change > assert_response :ok > assert assigns(:merchant_user)end > > > > http://jpereira.eu > > On Friday, July 26, 2013 1:10:30 AM UTC+2, João Pereira wrote: >> >> I have this controller: >> >> class UsersController < ApplicationController >> def enable_password_change >> respond_to do |format| >> format.js { >> render :layout => false >> } >> end >> endend >> >> And the following test: >> >> test "should render js to show the change password form" do >> sign_in_user >> request_javascript >> get :enable_password_change >> assert_template :enable_password_change >> assert_response :okend >> >> And the helper method to set the request headers: >> >> def request_javascript >> @request.headers["Accepts"] = "text/javascript, application/javascript, >> application/ecmascript, application/x-ecmascript"end >> >> However my test reports: >> >> Finished tests in 0.942294s, 7.4287 tests/s, 15.9186 assertions/s. >> 1) >> Error:UsersControllerTest#test_should_render_js_to_show_the_change_password_for:ActionController::UnknownFormat: >> ActionController::UnknownFormat >> app/controllers/users_controller.rb:9:in `enable_password_change' >> test/controllers/users_controller_test.rb:14:in `block in >> <class:UsersControllerTest>' >> >> 7 tests, 15 assertions, 0 failures, 1 errors, 0 skips >> >> What am I doing wrong here? >> >> P.S.
