you are stubbing current_user, not @_current_user, thus this will
fail. Maybe it would be more idiomatic to change this to
def some_action
current_user.save_choice( params )
end
this should solve your setup problem too.

Maybe i missed something here, but where does item_choice come from,
should that not be item?

The 1,000,000th fibonacci number contains '42' 2039 times; that is
almost 30 occurrences more than expected (208988 digits).
N.B. The 42nd fibonacci number does not contain '1000000' that is
almost the expected 3.0e-06 times.
