I don’t know if there are any repercussions, but just adding :text to

array in
rspec_on_rails/lib/spec/rails/dsl/behaviour/view_example.rb:subject_of_render
was enough to make it work.

That’s cool, but that’s not how we do things. Please submit a patch
with specs.

Its a typo (sort of). I actually call it on response rather than
controller, which does have the layout

it “should use application layout” do
do_it
response.should use_layout(“application”)
end

Yeah, I know. I was just stating that that’s all that was needed. I’m
not
entirely sure what would be needed to verify that it doesn’t have
unintended consequences.
