Given that you have user has_many :articles You want to use current_user.articles (or current_user.articles.find(*additional options*)). In the spec, you want to make sure that the articles are scoped through the correct user: before(:each) do @user = mock_model(User) User.stub!(:find).and_return(@user) # to make sure current_user is the mock model @articles = [mock_model(Article)] end it "should find articles for the current user" do @user.should_receive(:articles).and_return(@articles) get :index end It is then the responsibility of the articles association to scope the results. In the controller specs you just trust that it works. -- Jarkko Laine http://jlaine.net http://dotherightthing.com http://www.railsecommerce.com http://odesign.fi _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
