While my approach might not be the best, since I don't stub :login_required, it still serves me well. I would do something like this: user = mock_model(User, :operator = true) controller.stub!(:current_user).and_return(user) login_required will find the 'current_user' and be happy. I don't

I have a similar perspective from my own personal experience. I am still quite the novice, but I'm as much of a novice in RSpec as I am in Ruby / RoR. Honestly, a lot of my specs in new sections end up having great coverage, but are full of real models and few of the purist BDD
