Rspec rails 3 views authenticate

Hi,

I am stuck at the following. Can anyone help.
I am writting a spec for views. But how to test logged in views.

home/index_html_haml_rspec.rb

require ‘spec_helper’

describe “home/index.html.haml” do
include Devise::TestHelpers

login_user

it “should display header with search form” do

render :handlers => "home/index.html.haml"
response.should contain("Hello world!" )

end

pending “add some examples to (or delete) #{FILE}”

end

output:

/spec/views/home/index.html.haml_spec.rb:7:in block in <top (required)>': undefined local variable or methodlogin_user’ for

First thing, there is a forum
here:
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/plataformatec-devise
for devise itself. and there you might get a better help for your
question.

but I googled around. something I assume you have done and it seems that
login_user was a helper you had to redefine yourself. which does not
really
exist anymore, well, at least looking at the documentation of the devise
test helpers.

http://rubydoc.info/github/plataformatec/devise/master/Devise/TestHelpers

so probably you should use factory girl
(GitHub - thoughtbot/factory_bot: A library for setting up Ruby objects as test data.) to mock up a user and use
the
method on the documents called sign_in, something like:

@user = Factory(:user)

sign_in @user

now I also recommend you to read a little bit more about testing in
rails
with rspec and factory_girl:

for example to start with: #275 How I Test - RailsCasts
and you can also google a little bit more by yourself!

Hi,
I created macros,
the code is as follows

module ControllerMacros
def login_admin
before(:each) do
@request.env[“devise.mapping”] = Devise.mappings[:admin]
sign_in FactoryGirl.create(:admin) # Using factory girl as an
example
end
end

def login_user
before(:each) do
@request.env[“devise.mapping”] = Devise.mappings[:user]
@current_user = FactoryGirl.create(:user)
# user.confirm! # or set a confirmed_at inside the factory.
Only necessary if you are using the confirmable module
sign_in @current_user
end
end

def login_as_paid_user
before(:each) do
@request.env[“devise.mapping”] = Devise.mappings[:user]
@current_user = FactoryGirl.create(:user, :member_paid_monthly)
# user.confirm! # or set a confirmed_at inside the factory.
Only necessary if you are using the confirmable module
sign_in @current_user
end
end
def logout!
after(:each) do
session[:user]
end
end
end

its working in controller specs. The problem is with only views specs.
