I have a number of functional tests that check the response that was
created by the JavaScriptGenerator for some redirects. ie:
render :update do |page|
page.redirect_to comment_path(@comment)
end
The tests’ assertions look like this:
@javascript = @response.body
assert_equal “window.location.href = “#{comment_path(@comment)}”;”,
@javascript
This is fine except that when I run ‘rake test’, I get failures stating
that:
<“window.location.href = “/comments/1”;”> expected but was
<“window.location.href = “\/comments\/1”;”>.
But when I run only the specific Comments functional test (‘ruby
test/functional/comments_controller_test.rb’), no failures show up. Why
would ‘rake test’ escape these javascript strings differently? How can
I make it so that both the ‘rake test’ and ‘ruby
test/functional/comments_controller_test.rb’ pass?
Thanks
