Hi -- if my controller action already ensures that the correct template is
being rendered, what use is speccing that it should also be successful?
I do it, but just because I saw someone else do it ages ago.
Is there a point?
Cheers,
Doug.

Hello Mike,
Thank you for your hint. Obviously, it worked!

I am driving out a view and I want to test that a link is displayed.
The link_to code for the link is included in the layout for the view
rather than the view template itself.
Here's my example:
it "should display a link to create a new zone" do
render "contexts/index.html.erb", :layout =>
I am driving out a view that renders a list of items with which a
logged in member is associated.
Against each item, one or more links may be rendered according to the
member's role with respect to the item (item owner, item
administrator, regular user etc). Each link represents a type of

It depends. If you're doing full BDD on your view, using RSpec as a

Yes, and it's the way things should be. I suggest writing a separate

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. If the view fails to render, then Rails
returns the error page,

I never spec my views. I also never put conditional logic in the views. If
you have links that should show up sometimes and not others why not just
move that logic into a helper or other associated class and test the method?

Same deal as your other post about find_by_sql. Set the message
expectation on the method on the class:
Post.should_receive(:paginate)

It's the model's class:

describe Foo do

Good point.
The method I posted last week only works for Cucumber prior to 0.2.3.2.
For 0.2.3.2 and later, you cannot pass a block to the World more than
once, and thus the new way would be (in env.rb):
module FixtureAccess
def self.included(base)
(class << base; self; end).class_eval do

Thanks Steve.
As suggested I started to wrtite a separate spec for the layout:
require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../../
spec_helper')
describe "layouts/contexts.html.erb" do
it "should display a link to create a new zone" do
render "layouts/contexts.html.erb"
end
end
Thank you everyone for your helpful insights.
I had already gone down the route suggested by Zach but it was
nevertheless very re-assuring to have my approach validated as I am a
newbie to RSpec. I did however consolidate my expectations e.g.:
context "when the member is a privileged member of
32 matches
