Hi David,
Sounds great! Looking forward to more documentation :)
I have now gone through all the examples in the RSpec book and got
them working with the latest version of RSpec 2 and Rails 3 beta4.
I only have one loose end:
shared_examples_for "a template that renders the messages/form
partial" do
it "renders the messages/form partial" do
template.should_receive(:render).with(
:partial => "form",
:locals => { :message => assigns[:message] }
)
render
end
end
undefined local variable or method `template' for
#<RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup::Nested_8:0x00000100e019a0>
Changing template to _view as you instructed previously (I think)
_view.should_receive(:render).with(
:partial => "form",
:locals => { :message => assigns[:message] }
)
#<ActionView::Base:0x00000100e98c88> received :render with unexpected
arguments
expected: ({:partial=>"form", :locals=>{:message=>nil}})
got: ({:template=>"messages/edit.html.erb"}, {})
But this is my edit.html
<%= render "form", :message => @message %>
So _view only contains info on the view. How do I get info on the
templates called as part of the rendering process?
