Possible to stub params hash?

Testing RSpec
1

Hi,

I added one line in my controller to extend the params hash. But now I
get errors
in my controller spec.

Controller

def update
@pl_planning = PlPlanning.find(params[:id])

the item model version (select box) depends on other select boxes and

can be empty

then it is not in the params hash and the attribute would not be

updated and validated
→ params[:pl_planning][“item_model_version_id”] ||= “”

update planning attributes

@pl_planning.attributes = params[:pl_planning]
…

Controller Spec error:

You have a nil object when you didn’t expect it!
You might have expected an instance of ActiveRecord::Base.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.[]

What do I have to add in my spec for that ?

I tried:

params = {“pl_planning” => {}}
controller.stub!(:params).and_return(params)

But then I get the following error:

undefined method `scope=’ for
#Searchlogic::Cache::PlPlanningSearch:0x6aa14cc

Thanks in advance
Andrea

Usually you are will fare better if you pass the params directly in:

get :foo, :param1 => “something”

Why are you stubbing params?
