…inside the otherwise truly awesome ActiveGateway:

def test\_successful\_purchase  
@gateway.expects(:ssl\_post).returns(successful\_purchase\_response)  
assert response = @gateway.authorize(@amount, @credit\_card,  
@options)  
assert\_instance\_of Response, response  
assert\_success response  
assert\_equal ‘510695343’, response.authorization  
end

This is not a question; just a tip that I hope someone can bubble up  
to the maintainers.

Note the discrepancy between the test case name and the @gateway.  
method that actually gets called! C-:

( Oh, BTW, I made an example of other aspects of AG’s test suite here:

[Radar – O’Reilly](http://broadcast.oreilly.com/2010/05/abstract-tests.html) )

Happy coding, y’all!

If this is a Rails-related tip, it would find the most appropriate  
audience on a Rails mailing list.

This mailing list is for Ruby, the programming language; Rails is an  
application which just happens to be written _in_ Ruby.

Neither is the Rails mailing list correct for a plugin, duh.
