Route_for()

Testing RSpec
1

Hello,

Can I test in the spec the route taken by the redirect_to from the
controller? The URL is not controller/action.
I tried:
route_for(:controller => “signup”, :action => “confirmation”).should ==
“/my/set/URL” but no it absolutely wants: …should ==
“signup/confirmation”
So how can I test my real URL?

Thank you,
Anita.

Look at the below, I think it entails what you want:

describe YourController do
it “redirects to the home page” do
get :index
response.should redirect_to(“your_path_here”)
end
end

There may be a more straightforward way, but params_from may help:
