Thanks for the reply! Your solution works, but it is pretty much same
as just doing assert_matches.
After some thinking I realized that I can just stub out the
render_message of the ActionMailer::Base class:
context "Email body hash" do
setup do
@bar = Bar.create!
FooMailer.any_instance.stubs(:render_message).with { |template,
body| @body_hash = body}.returns(:email_body)
@email = FooMailler.create_send_foo(@bar)
end
should "contain key pair :bar => @bar" do
assert_equal @bar, @body_hash[:bar]
end
end
And that seems to do the trick.
I am still quite curious as to why ActionMailer::Base is so set
against having instances, but at least it works.
