Answer 1

You can simply create the spec using the following code snippet :

 Restaurant = FactoryBot.create(:Restaurant, name: Faker::Name.name)
 post :create, params: { location: {restaurant_ids:[Restaurant.id]}, format: 'json'
 expect(response.status).to eq(200)

Answer 2

Try the following code to create

restaurant = FactoryBot.create(:restaurant, name: Faker::Name.name)
post :create, params: { restaurant_id: restaurant.id, location: {restaurant_ids:[restaurant.id]}, format: 'js' }
expect(response).to have_http_status(:success)

Try the following code to update

restaurant = FactoryBot.create(:restaurant, name: Faker::Name.name)
location = FactoryBot.create(:location, restaurant_id: restaurant.id)
patch :update, params: { id: location.id, location: {restaurant_ids:[restaurant.id]}, format: 'js' }
expect(response).to have_http_status(:success)

Answer 3

For simple controllers like this, I also like to ensure that the records are being created, so I would also test this:

restaurant = FactoryBot.create(:restaurant, name: Faker::Name.name)
expect {
  post(
    :create,
    params: {
      restaurant_id: restaurant.id,
      location: { restaurant_ids:[restaurant.id] },
      format: 'js'
    }
  )
}.to change{ Location.count }.by(1)
