i want to test my routes and really struggle with it …

i have the following roout defined:

map.home ‘’, :controller =\> ‘Home’

… which allows me to call [http://www.host.com](http://www.host.com) and be redirected to the  
home controllers’ index action. my test looks the following now:

assert\_routing(‘’, :controller =\> ‘home’, :action =\> ‘index’)

and it fails with:

Test::Unit::AssertionFailedError: The recognized options  
\<{“action”=\>“index”, “controller”=\>“Home”}\> did not match  
\<{“action”=\>“index”, “controller”=\>“home”}\>, difference:  
\<{“controller”=\>“home”}\>

i am stuck, thanks for your time

oh, i just figured out why …  
the whole thing is case sensitive. The defined route had ‘Home’ and the  
test ‘home’

sorry for that mistake.
