    <p>I am trying to get a previously passing rspec "view spec" to pass after adding Devise's <code>user_signed_in?</code> method to the view template in question. The template looks something like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;% if user_signed_in? %&gt; Welcome back. &lt;% else %&gt; Please sign in. &lt;% endif %&gt; </code></pre> <p>The view spec that <em>was</em> passing looks something like this:</p> <pre><code>require "spec_helper" describe "home/index.html.erb" do it "asks you to sign in if you are not signed in" do render rendered.should have_content('Please sign in.') end end </code></pre> <p>The error it produces after adding the call to <code>user_signed_in?</code> is:</p> <pre><code> 1) home/index.html.erb asks you to sign in if you are not signed in Failure/Error: render ActionView::Template::Error: undefined method `authenticate' for nil:NilClass # ./app/views/home/index.html.erb:1:in `_app_views_home_index_html_erb__1932916999377371771_70268384974540' # ./spec/views/home/index.html.erb_spec.rb:6:in `block (2 levels) in &lt;top (required)&gt;' </code></pre> <p>There are plenty of references to this error around the web, but I have yet to find an answer descriptive enough that I can get my test passing again. I believe the problem has something to do with the view (which is being testing in isolation from any models/controllers) not having some key Devise infrastructure available. Your suggestions are appreciated.</p> <p>Also, once the test passes, how would I test the other path (user already signed in)? I presume it will be very similar. Thanks.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
