I have just installed the edge version of rspec and rspec-rails and some of my specs related to views now fail.
I use the helper current_user in my views, to access the user that is actually logged in. I was simply using the sentence assigns[:current_user] = stub_model(User,:role => "whatever") and now, my spec fails in current_user.role because not it says that the current_user is nil. You have a nil object when you didn't expect it! The error occurred while evaluating nil.role I have try with something like this. describe "/clientes/new.html.haml" do include ClientesHelper before do user = stub_model(User,:role => "Comercial") controller.stub!(:current_user).and_return(user) cliente = stub_model(Cliente, :new_record? => true) assigns[:cliente] = cliente end it "should show th New form" do render "/clientes/new.html.haml" response.should have_tag("form[action=?][method=post]", clientes_path) do with_tag("input#cliente_codigo[name=?]", "cliente[codigo]") with_tag("input#cliente_nombre[name=?]", "cliente[nombre]") with_tag("input#cliente_domicilio[name=?]", "cliente[domicilio]") with_tag("input#cliente_poblacion[name=?]", "cliente[poblacion]") with_tag("input#cliente_provincia[name=?]", "cliente[provincia]") with_tag("input#cliente_telefono[name=?]", "cliente[telefono]") end end end and throw this error: undefined local variable or method `controller' for #<Spec::Rails::Example::ViewExampleGroup::Subclass_1:0xb70704ec> Why? How can I mock the current_user helper for using in my views?
