The render line does not invoke the static_pages controller, it just invokes the view files for static_pages/home, so it will not call the static_pages controller to setup your variables. I don't know how your debug got to that code, I suspect it was from a different part of the test. Perhaps you meant redirect_to which will invoke the controller to perform the action.
