I'm using Shoulda and restful_authentication on Rails3 and whenever I run my tests a before filter for login_required is always triggered, despite my filter being set up as:
before_filter :login_required, :only => [:update, :edit, :suspend, :unsuspend, :destroy, :purge] My test is this: context 'A guest to the site' do context 'on GET to :show' do setup { get :show, { :id => users(:alexander).id } } should_not_set_the_flash should_assign_to :user should_respond_with :success end end The test fails though: 3) Failure: test: A guest to the site on GET to :show should assign @user. (UsersControllerTest) []: Expected action to assign a value for @user 4) Failure: test: A guest to the site on GET to :show should not set the flash. (UsersControllerTest) []: Did not expect the flash to be set, but was {:error=>"Sorry! You need to log in before visiting that page."} 5) Failure: test: A guest to the site on GET to :show should respond with success. (UsersControllerTest) []: Expected response to be a 200, but was 302 Here is the code for my before_filter that is actually making this test fail: def login_required authorized? || access_denied end def access_denied session[:return_to] = request.fullpath flash[:error] = t('application.flash.error.login_required') redirect_to(new_sessions_path) end This code, as far as my understanding goes, should NOT ever be called from this test though... I have the :only => [] in the controller to not do it on show. Can anyone lend any insight as to why it is being triggered? Another strange thing is this DOES NOT happen in production or development modes using the browser. I can be logged out and visit this page just fine without this before_filter being called. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
