I need to update something for a logged in user. My controller code for
the action is:
def som_action
@_current_user.save_choice(params)
end
My application_controller.rb contains the following:
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
before_filter :current_user
def current_user
@_current_user ||= session[:current_user_id] &&
User.find(session[:current_user_id])
end
end
In my controller spec, I am trying something like this:
let(:user) { mock_model("User", :id => 1001) }
let(:item) { mock_model("Item", :id => 1010) }
before(:each) do
controller.stub!(:current_user).and_return(user)
end
describe "POST create" do
context "when the user chooses an item" do
it 'creates a item_choice' do
ItemChoice.should_receive(:new).
with("requester_id" => user.id, "item_id" => item.id).
and_return(item_choice)
post :create, :item_choice => { "item_id" => item.id }
response.should redirect_to(home_path)
end
end
end
I get nil object error when I run this spec, as there is no
@_current_user set. How do I stub such that there is a user with an id
to do this?
