= shoulda-matchers
{Official Documentation}[http://rubydoc.info/github/thoughtbot/shoulda-matchers/master/frames]
Test::Unit- and RSpec-compatible one-liners that test common Rails functionality.
These tests would otherwise be much longer, more complex, and error-prone.
Refer to the {shoulda}[https://github.com/thoughtbot/shoulda] gem if you want to know more
about using shoulda with Test::Unit.
=== ActiveRecord Matchers
Matchers to test associations and validations:
describe Post do
it { should belong_to(:user) }
it { should have_many(:tags).through(:taggings) }
it { should validate_uniqueness_of(:title) }
it { should validate_presence_of(:body).with_message(/wtf/) }
it { should validate_presence_of(:title) }
it { should validate_numericality_of(:user_id) }
end
describe User do
it { should have_many(:posts) }
it { should_not allow_value("blah").for(:email) }
it { should allow_value("a@b.com").for(:email) }
it { should ensure_inclusion_of(:age).in_range(1..100) }
it { should_not allow_mass_assignment_of(:password) }
end
=== ActionController Matchers
Matchers to test common patterns:
describe PostsController, "#show" do
context "for a fictional user" do
before do
get :show, :id => 1
end
it { should assign_to(:user) }
it { should respond_with(:success) }
it { should render_template(:show) }
it { should_not set_the_flash }
end
end
= Installation
In Rails 3 and Bundler, add the following to your Gemfile:
group :test do
gem "shoulda-matchers"
gem "rspec-rails"
end
Shoulda will automatically include matchers into the appropriate example groups.
