Mongoid, rspec and assigns (: to people) a question

Question

I am trying to write my first specifications for People Controller Using mangoid (2.0.1), rspec (2.5.0), mongoid-rspec (1.4.2) and manufacturing (0.9.5), if necessary.

(note: the Organization model is derided inherited from the Person model)

describe PeopleController do
  describe "as logged in user" do
    before (:each) do
      @user = Fabricate(:user)
      sign_in @user
    end

    describe "GET 'index'" do
      def mock_person(stubs={})
        @mock_person ||= mock_model(Person, stubs).as_null_object
#        @mock_person ||= Fabricate.build(:organization)       
      end

      it "should be successful" do
        get :index
        response.should be_success
      end

      it "assigns all people as @people" do
        Person.stub(:all) { [mock_person] }
        get :index
        assigns(:people).should eq(mock_person)
      end
    end
  end

I get the following error when starting this specification:

    1) PeopleController as logged in user GET 'index' assigns all people as @people
       Failure/Error: assigns(:people).should eq(mock_person)

         expected #<Person:0x811b8448 @name="Person_1001">
              got #<Mongoid::Criteria
           selector: {},
           options:  {},
           class:    Person,
           embedded: false>


         (compared using ==)

         Diff:
         @@ -1,2 +1,6 @@

         +  embedded: false>
       # ./spec/controllers/people_controller_spec.rb:24:in `block (4 levels) in <top (required)>'

Thanks to inherited_resources (1.2.2), my DRY controller works in development mode, as it should be.

class PeopleController < InheritedResources::Base
  actions :index
end

Any ideas what I am doing wrong Mongoid::Criteriaobject?

Thanks in advance

, mongoid-rspec !

Answer 2

, , , , - :

def index
  @people = Person.all.to_a
end

to_a Mongoid::Criteria . , , , inherited_resources.

Answer 3

stubbing :

describe "GET 'index'" do
  before do
    get 'index'
  end

  it "returns http success" do
    response.should be_success
  end

  it "should have news" do
    assigns[:news].should be_a(Mongoid::Criteria)
    assigns[:news].selector.should == {}
    assigns[:news].klass.should == News
    assigns[:news].options[:sort].should == [[:created_at, :desc]]
    assigns[:news].options[:limit].should == 10
  end
end

Answer 4

, , , (: ) rspec (, ).

, rspec , Inherited Resources.

The work around me used to force download assignments (: topics) using logger.info:

class TopicsController < InheritedResources::Base
  def index
    # Needed for rspec assigns() to pass, 
    # since it doesn't evalue inherited_resources resource assignment
    logger.info "Topics: #{@topics.inspect}" if Rails.env.test?
  end
end

Hope this helps.
