Part of the testing harness on one of our projects:
module Spec::Example::ExampleGroupMethods
def model
self.described_type.to_s.underscore
end
def should_require(*attrs)
raise "should require needs at least one attribute" if attrs.empty?
model = model()
attrs.each do |attribute|
it "should require :#{attribute}" do
m = Factory.build(model.to_sym)
m.send("#{attribute}=", nil)
m.should have(1).error_on(attribute)
end
end
end
...
end
Using FactoryGirl for spinning up instances, but of course easily
tweaked for other mocking.

Hi everybody,
New to the list, so apologies if this has been answered elsewhere,
but I didn't find it. I'm trying to build up a plugin of useful
rspec macros for rails development, eg. things like:
it_should_return_success
it_should_redirect_to { some_url }
I'm basing my ideas off of some stuff technoweenie has done, as well
as a few others.
One thing I'd love to do is be able to figure out the model class in
a rails model spec, so I can do something like:
describe User do
it_should_validate_presence_of :name
end
