[英]How to test 'new' controller actions?
I am using Ruby on Rails 3.2.2, Rspec 2.9.0 and RspecRails 2.9.0. 我正在使用Ruby on Rails 3.2.2,Rspec 2.9.0和RspecRails 2.9.0。 I am trying to test a new
controller action and I would like to know why I get the error explained above only for that action. 我正在尝试测试new
控制器动作,我想知道为什么我得到上面仅针对该动作解释的错误。
Given: 鉴于:
# controller
class ArticlesController < ApplicationController
before_filter :signed_in
def new
@article = Article.new
# This is just a sample code line to show you where the error happens?
@article.new_record?
...
end
def show
@article = Article.find(params[:id])
...
end
end
# spec file
require 'spec_helper'
describe ArticlesController do
before(:each) do
@current_user = FactoryGirl.create(:user)
# Signs in user so to pass the 'before_filter'
cookies.signed[:current_user_id] = {:value => [@current_user.id, ...]}
end
it "article should be new" do
article = Article.should_receive(:new).and_return(Article.new)
get :new
assigns[:article].should eq(article)
end
it "article should be shown" do
article = FactoryGirl.create(:article)
get :show, :id => article.id.to_s
assigns[:article].should eq(article)
end
end
When I run the Example related to the new
action I get this error (it is related to the @article.new_record?
code line in the controller file): 当我运行与new
操作有关的示例时,出现此错误(它与控制器文件中的@article.new_record?
代码行有关):
Failure/Error: get :new
NoMethodError:
undefined method `new_record?' for nil:NilClass
But when I run the Example related to the show
action it passes without errors. 但是,当我运行与show
动作相关的Example时,它通过时没有错误。
What is the problem? 问题是什么? How can I solve that? 我该如何解决?
The problem is the way you've done 问题是你做事的方式
Article.should_receive(:new).and_return(Article.new)
This is the same as 这和
temp = Article.should_receive(:new)
temp.and_return(Article.new)
So by the time you are setting up the return value, Article.new
has already been mocked out and so returns nil, so you're doing and_return(nil)
Create the return value first, ie 因此,当您设置返回值时, Article.new
已经被and_return(nil)
出来,因此返回nil,因此您正在执行and_return(nil)
创建返回值,即
new_article = Article.new #or any other way of creating an article - it may also be appropriate to return a mock
Article.should_receive(:new).and_return(new_article)
Try: 尝试:
it "article should be new" do
article = FactoryGirl.build(:article)
Article.stub(:new).and_return(article)
get :new
assigns(:article).should == article
end
