if you moved the code that defines crits into a method then you could
stub the method
crits = define_crits
then
controller.stub!(:define_crits).and_return( { :name => 'Steve' })

Hi,
I need help to spec a local variable in a controller. I have been
wandering how I can do that since all I have done so far is useless.
Note that the code is in a controller and that it is not yet finished
since I am trying to spec it as I develop it. Here is what the code
should look like when it is finished :
...
crits = {}
params.each {
|key, val|
crits[key.to_sym] = StringUtils.remove_chars(val).upcase if not
(cle == "controller" || cle == "action")
}
if crits[:name].nil?
add_where(where_clause, crits[:name])
end
...
I am trying to mock the crits local variable. Here is what the rspec
looks like so far :
@mock_crits = mock(Hash, { :name => 'Steve' })
assigns(:crits) = @mock_crits
First, I can not seem to have control on the params array. How can I
mock this array ? Also, I also can not seem to have control on the
crits local variable when I try to spec the if crits[:name].nil?. Is
this a bad way to code ? Can anyone explain this ?
Many thanks in advance.
Mathieu
