Mocking request.remote_ip for testing

[clemrock]

Hello,

I'm writing test for some geo-location methods which are all very IP

dependent.

Is there a good way to mock a request.remote_ip?

Thanks for any help,

Clem C

Have you looked at passing in request parameters to the get method?

get(url, {}, {‘REMOTE_ADDR’=>‘123.1.1.1’})

I found two solutions that worked nicely for me

1. @request.stubs(:remote_ip).returns(“1.2.3.4”) #using Mocha

2. def setup
   @controller = FooController.new
   @request = ActionController::TestRequest.new
   @response = ActionController::TestResponse.new

   @request.instance_eval do
     def remote_ip
       "666.13.37.911"
     end
   end
   

   end
