Shoulda is actually just a collection of test helpers: the #setup method
that runs before each test, the #should that defines a test, and the
#context that encapsulates a context, e.g.:
context "GET new" do
context "when logged in" do
setup do
log_in
get :new
end
should_respond_with :success
should "do something" do
assert something
end
end
end

That might work. I tried a different approach, it's not quite as elegant
but I use it this way:
should_require_login :post, :create
should_require_login :get, :edit, :id => Page.first.id
Take a look at the method definition here: http://pastie.org/351489 The
first argument is the HTTP method you want to use. Second argument is
what action to test. And the third is additional parameters you want to
pass to the action.
It works fine, but thanks anyway, Frederick. If anyone else could find
the #should_require_login method helpful, you are free to use it. :)
