Example of thinking sphinx unit testing: My environment: psql (PostgreSQL) 8.3.7 sphinx 0.9.8.1
Based on article http://opensoul.org/2009/6/1/cucumber-scenarios-that-depend-on-sphinx I created two methods in test_helper.rb def start_sphinx @thinking_sphinx = ThinkingSphinx::Configuration.instance @thinking_sphinx.build FileUtils.mkdir_p @thinking_sphinx.searchd_file_path @thinking_sphinx.controller.index @thinking_sphinx.controller.start end def stop_sphinx @thinking_sphinx.controller.stop DatabaseCleaner.clean end You need also gem database_cleaner Now I can write in my tests (shoulda): context "user search" do setup do User.create(:login => 'johndoe') start_sphinx end teardown { stop_sphinx } should "find john doe" do u = User.search "johndoe" assert 'johndoe', u.first.login assert 1, u.size end end Maybe it will help someone.
