Hey everyone thanks for the input.

I've tried your suggestions with varying results:

def test_should_delete_word
    assert_equal 'published', words(:one).status
    debugger
    delete :destroy, :id => words(:one).to_param
    Word.reload
    word_status=Word.find(:id).status
    assert_equal 'deleted', word_status
end
 Returns reload is not method.

I tried
def test_should_delete_word2
      assert_equal 'published', words(:one).status
      delete :destroy, :id => words(:one).to_param

      assert_equal 'deleted', Word.find(:id.to_param).status
  end
It claims "Couldn't find Word with ID=id" same with assert_equal
'deleted', Word.find(:id).status

I also tried using Machinist but really don't know what objects to
call on to try anything. Wouldn't I have to first create a word then
find the word delete the ford and check the value. At that point it
sounds more like an integration test then Functional.
  def test_should_delete_word
    word = Word.plan
    delete :destroy, :id => word.id // Returns cannot find id as the
object was never stored?
    assert_equal 'deleted', assigns(:id).status
  end

Thanks for your suggestions so far
