Hi,
in my Controller I have some tansactions. I'm trying to write specs, which test
the two program pathes (an exception is thrown or no exception is thrown). But
the test seems always to go into the path, where the exception is catched.
Here's an example for the delete action
(destroy method is overwritten, so :dependent => :destroy is not possible here)
The test case "should flash the notice" fails, because not the program path of
success is executed, but the rescue path is executed.
Perhaps my exception handling is generally wrong ?
Thanks
Andrea
