Body
copied!<p>I`m trying to test my controller with rspec and always get an error. </p> <p>users_controller.rb:</p> <pre><code>def update @user.update_attributes!(params[:user]) redirect_to @user, :status => 202, :text => render_to_string(:partial => "users/show", :type => "json", :locals => {:user => @user}) #notice, that redirect_to was reinitialized and :text is a parameter for response_body end </code></pre> _show.tokamak <pre><code>user { id user.id email user.email username user.username } </code></pre> spec file <pre><code>it "should NOT update user username" do username = @user.username put 'update', :id => @user.id, :user => {:username => username+"abc"}, :format => :json response.status.should be(202) response.headers["Location"].length.should be > 0 puts response.body @user.reload @user.username.should eq(username) end end </code></pre> <p>So I get an error:</p> <blockquote> <p>Failure/Error: put 'update', :id => @user.id, :user => {:username => username+"abc"}, :format => :json ActionView::Template::Error: You have a nil object when you didn't expect it! You might have expected an instance of Array. The error occurred while evaluating nil.[] # C:/Users/makaroni4/free_frog/ffapi/app/views/users/_show.tokamak:1:in <code>_app_views_users__show_tokamak___509498818 _32151168_368311673' # C:/Users/makaroni4/XXX/XXX/app/controllers/users_controller.rb:22:in </code>update' # ./users_controller_spec.rb:34:in `block (4 levels) in '</p> </blockquote> <p>So may be I call render_to_string method wrong?</p>
