NameError: uninitialized constant in controller while rspec controller testing

Question

Controller code

before_action :verify_request

def verify_request
  unless request.headers['Authorization'].present? && request.headers['Authorization'] == APIKEY["authorization_key"]
    render json: { message: "UnAuthorize Request" }, status: 401
  end
end

Rspec code:

describe "GET #index" do
  it "returns 400 (empty query parameter)" do
    request.env["HTTP_AUTHORIZATION"] = "testing123"
    get :index
    expect(response).to have_http_status(400)
  end
end

Issue i face is that while rspec testing, environment variables are not accessible in controller and tests are failing. How do i fix that?

Note: I defined authorization_key in config/authorization.yml for all environments and its working in dev mode but not in testing.

Error I get is:

Failure/Error: unless request.headers['Authorization'].present? && request.headers['Authorization'] == APIKEY["authorization_key"]

 NameError:
   uninitialized constant V1::LocationController::APIKEY

您是否在CONTROLLER-NAME_controller_spec.rb包含了require 'rails_helper' CONTROLLER-NAME_controller_spec.rb
