Rspec - has_many-belongs_to controller question

Rails
1

I’m using
restful-authentication from

RSPEC 1.1.4 from Home · dchelimsky/rspec-rails Wiki · GitHub
(downloaded this week)

The spec for loging in work
I even have it working checking for authentication on the teachers
controller.
What I want to do is find students that belong to a teacher
So if I’m the teacher and I log in I want to see only my students.

Models

class Students < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :teacher
end

class Teacher < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :students
end

controller

class TeachersController < ApplicationController

GET /teachers

GET /teachers.xml

def index
@teachers = current_user.projects

respond_to do |format|
  format.html # index.html.erb
  format.xml  { render :xml => @teachers }
end

end
end

controler_spec

require File.expand_path(File.dirname(FILE) + ‘/…/spec_helper’)

describe StudentsController do
describe “handling GET /students” do

before(:each) do
  @student = mock_model(Student)
  student.stub!(:find).and_return([@student])
  @User = user_login # logs user in
end

def do_get
  controller.logged_in?().should == true
  get :index
end

it "should be successful" do
  do_get
  response.should be_success
end

it "should render index template" do
  do_get
  response.should render_template('index')
end

it "should find all students" do
  Student.should_receive(:find).with(:all).and_return([@student])
  do_get
end

it "should assign the found projects for the view" do
  do_get
  assigns[:student].should == [@student]
end

end
end

errors I get

I think this is what is giving me grief

Student.should_receive(:find).with(:all).and_return([@student])

but I don’t know how to get it to work

Any help will be appreciated
