Hi,
I think @header may not be an implementation detail in this case.
If your layout looks like this:
...
<head>
<title><%= @header || 'Default Title' %></title>
</head>
...
And the view we are testing looks like this:
...
<h1><%= @header = 'Specific Title'></h1>
...
Then setting @header is an essential behavior for the view spec.
Or am I missing something?
Before I can answer about how to test this with RSpec, I need to
understand what's going on in the code. Isn't the head part of the
layout evaluated before the body? If that's the case, what's the point
of assigning the @header variable in the view? It wouldn't change the
title anyway
The layout is evaluated after the view so the above code is a useful way
to include some piece of data in the head without having to initialize
it in the controller. Very handy for things like head/title or view
specific onload js etc...
Cheers!
Patrick
