Hi all  
i m having a tough time testing my controllers, some different cases:

1. def spCodes  
@sp\_codes = Code.get\_sp\_code(params[:id], 0, 100)

2. def search  
@matcher = request.raw\_post || request.query\_string  
@code = Code.search(@matcher)

i am getting nil objects for both of methods,  
can anybody help …

thanks
