Ahh.. yes, you do. Thanks a lot! That definitely answers my question.

Not sure if I'm understanding right, but no, I can make the method
public -- I just got used to methods, that aren't (or don't need to
be) called by anything but its owner, being private.
If I make it public it solves my question somewhat :)
Thanks,

I was reading some old posts on how we shouldn't test private methods,
but there seemed to be an exception for states.
When my model enters a state, a method is executed. (:on => Proc ...)
I just want to test this method. I couldn't find much material on it.
How can I go about this?
Thanks,
Ram
