Using the "path" method the spec passes, but i don't use the path method on my controller. First, here's my controller code:
def create @static_page = @event.static_pages.build(params[:static_page]) respond_to do |format| if @static_page.save flash[:notice] = 'Page was successfully created.' format.html { redirect_to(:action => 'show', :id => @static_page.permalink ) } ## thats what i'm testing agains format.xml { render :xml => @static_page, :status => :created, :location => @static_page } else format.html { render :action => "new" } format.xml { render :xml => @static_page.errors, :status => :unprocessable_entity } end end end And here is the spec: it 'Should redirect to the new page' do do_post response.should be_redirect response.should redirect_to( page_path( :action => 'show', :id => @static_page.permalink ) ) ## this one, with the page_path goes fine response.should redirect_to( :action => 'show', :id => @static_page.permalink ) ## this one, without the page_path doesn't work end It seems that the redirect_to matcher doesn't recognize the current controller. And here goes the full backtrace: ActionController::MethodNotAllowed in 'StaticPagesController Handling POST /pages With successful save Should redirect to the new page' Only get, put, and delete requests are allowed. /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.0.2/lib/action_controller/routing.rb:1439:in `recognize_path' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails/lib/spec/rails/matchers/redirect_to.rb:43:in `path_hash' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails/lib/spec/rails/matchers/redirect_to.rb:38:in `hash_from_url' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails/lib/spec/rails/matchers/redirect_to.rb:26:in `actual_hash' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails/lib/spec/rails/matchers/redirect_to.rb:34:in `actual_redirect_to_valid_route' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails/lib/spec/rails/matchers/redirect_to.rb:18:in `matches?' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/expectations/handler.rb:19:in `handle_matcher' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/expectations/extensions/object.rb:34:in `should' ./spec/controllers/static_pages_controller_spec.rb:119: /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/example/example_methods.rb:78:in `instance_eval' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/example/example_methods.rb:78:in `run_with_description_capturing' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/example/example_methods.rb:19:in `execute' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/timeout.rb:48:in `timeout' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/example/example_methods.rb:16:in `execute' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/example/example_group_methods.rb:292:in `execute_examples' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/example/example_group_methods.rb:291:in `each' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/example/example_group_methods.rb:291:in `execute_examples' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/example/example_group_methods.rb:121:in `run' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/runner/example_group_runner.rb:22:in `run' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/runner/example_group_runner.rb:21:in `each' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/runner/example_group_runner.rb:21:in `run' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/runner/options.rb:90:in `run_examples' /home/mauricio/workspace/antares/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/runner/command_line.rb:19:in `run' script/spec:4: On Fri, Feb 22, 2008 at 11:00 AM, David Chelimsky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Fri, Feb 22, 2008 at 7:50 AM, Maurício Linhares > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello guys, > > > > I have the following spec: > > > > describe 'With successful save' do > > > > it 'Should redirect to the new page' do > > do_post > > response.should be_redirect > > response.should redirect_to( :action => 'show', :id => > > @static_page.permalink ) ## this is the line 118 > > end > > > > end > > > > And when I try to run it it gives me the following error: > > > > 1) > > ActionController::MethodNotAllowed in 'StaticPagesController Handling > > POST /pages With successful save Should redirect to the new page' > > Only get, put, and delete requests are allowed. > > ./spec/controllers/static_pages_controller_spec.rb:118: > > script/spec:4: > > > > So, the response is a redirect (the "response.should be_redirect" > > passes) but when i try to be sure that it redirected to the right page > > it throws this weird error to me.
