How-to test devise with RSpec?

Question

I just wondering, how to test devise's controller with rspec?

With devise, we hand off most of users controller's action to devise, and maybe only a show action for users, and I write the user#show spec in spec/controllers/users_controller_spec.rb , but what about the other actions supplied by devise, how to test them?

or, I just don't need to test the devise controller, 'cause it is been tested while develop the gem?

Answer 1

Personally I would not test devise itself. That's the responsibility of the author of that gem. What I would focus on is the behavior of your application instead. Isolate the devise code by mock/stub where necessary and only test your side of the points where your code intersects with the devise code.

That's not to say you can't write a few quick tests on critical behavior--log in for example.

You might consider reading The Rspec Book . I found it invaluable to getting my head into the BDD & Rspec mindset.

如果您想要一些示例，请使用Devise和RSpec和Cucumber查看Rails 3.1中的源代码。
