Thanks Fred.
I actually did it like this in the end, I put this in test_helper
# Add more helper methods to be used by all tests here...
def login
@request.env['HTTP_AUTHORIZATION'] = 'Basic ' +
Base64::encode64("foo:bar")
end
and then in the tests like this
test "should destroy item" do
login
assert_difference('Item.count', -1) do
delete :destroy, :id => items(:one).to_param
end
assert_redirected_to items_path
end
##########################
test "should not get index" do
# don't login in this test.
get :index
assert_response :unauthorized
assert_nil assigns(:items)
end
-----
Would appreciate any comments on this approach.
