Authlogic and password and password confirmation attributes - inaccessible?
- by adam
Im trying to test my successfully creates a new user after login (using authlogic). Ive added a couple of new fields to the user so just want to make sure that the user is saved properly.
The problem is despite creating a valid user factory, whenever i try to grab its attributes to post to the create method, password and password confirmation are being ommitted. I presuem this is a security method that authlogic performs in the background. This results in validations failing and the test failing.
Im wondering how do i get round this problem? I could just type the attributes out by hand but that doesnt seem very dry.
context "on POST to :create" do
context "on posting a valid user" do
setup do
@user = Factory.build(:user)
post :create, :user => @user.attributes
end
should "be valid" do
assert @user.valid?
end
should_redirect_to("users sentences index page") { sentences_path() }
should "add user to the db" do
assert User.find_by_username(@user.username)
end
end
##User factory
Factory.define :user do |f|
f.username {Factory.next(:username) }
f.email { Factory.next(:email)}
f.password_confirmation "password"
f.password "password"
f.native_language {|nl| nl.association(:language)}
f.second_language {|nl| nl.association(:language)}
end
