Hi, all.
I am perplexed. The problem I'm having seems to be related to
rendering a "non-standard" view. In our controllers, the 'new' and
'edit' actions share a template, as shown here.
Controller:
def new
@location = Location.new
respond_to do |format|
format.html { render :template => 'locations/locations' }
format.xml { render :xml => @location }
end
end
def edit
@location = Location.find(params[:id])
render :template => 'locations/locations'
end
def create
@location = Location.new(params[:location])
respond_to do |format|
if @location.save
flash[:notice] = 'Location was successfully created.'
format.html { redirect_to(@location) }
format.xml { render :xml => @location, :status => :created,
:location => @location }
else
format.html { render :action => "new" }
format.xml { render :xml => @location.errors, :status =>
:unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
def update
@location = Location.find(params[:id])
respond_to do |format|
if @location.update_attributes(params[:location])
flash[:notice] = 'Location was successfully updated.'
format.html { redirect_to(@location) }
format.xml { head :ok }
else
format.html { render :action => "edit" }
format.xml { render :xml => @location.errors, :status =>
:unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
In the controller spec, the 'new' and 'edit' actions work fine, but
when I try to get the response back for the 'update' and 'create'
actions, I get a failure.
This works:
it "should render new template" do
get :new
response.should render_template('locations/locations')
end
This fails:
describe "with failed save" do
def do_post
@location.should_receive(:save).and_return(false)
post :create, :location => {}
end
it "should re-render 'new'" do
do_post
response.should render_template('locations/locations')
end
end
Error:
'LocationsController handling POST /cms/locations with failed save
should re-render 'new'' FAILED
expected "locations/locations", got "locations/new"
./spec/controllers/locations_controller_spec.rb:320:
Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.
