ActionController :: RoutingError：没有路由与{：controller =>“ vendors”，：action =>“ vendors”}匹配？

Question

In my test, I'm trying to call

get :vendors

but the error I get is

ActionController::RoutingError: No route matches {:controller=>"vendors", 
    :action=>"vendors"}

I do have the following in routes.rb

match '/vendors', :to => 'vendors#index'

so I don't get why it's looking for the (non-existent) "vendors" action instead of using "index" like it's matched. Can anyone explain this to me?

Answer 1

Because you told it to?

The test is already contextualized, presumably with describe VendorsController , so saying get :vendors tells it to get the Vendors#vendors action. It isn't saying "get the /vendors URL", it's going straight to the controller.

In general, you run get :action not get :controller nor get :matched_route_name

Answer 2

you should be doing

get :index

Here is an example of controller test in rspec
