RSpec test failing looking for a new set of eyes
- by TheDelChop
Guys,
Here my issuse:
I've got two models:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
# Setup accessible (or protected) attributes for your model
attr_accessible :email, :username
has_many :tasks
end
class Task < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :user
end
with this simple routes.rb file
TestProj::Application.routes.draw do |map|
resources :users do
resources :tasks
end
end
this schema:
ActiveRecord::Schema.define(:version => 20100525021007) do
create_table "tasks", :force => true do |t|
t.string "name"
t.integer "estimated_time"
t.datetime "created_at"
t.datetime "updated_at"
t.integer "user_id"
end
create_table "users", :force => true do |t|
t.string "email"
t.string "password"
t.string "password_confirmation"
t.datetime "created_at"
t.datetime "updated_at"
t.string "username"
end
add_index "users", ["email"], :name => "index_users_on_email", :unique => true
add_index "users", ["username"], :name => "index_users_on_username", :unique => true
end
and this controller for my tasks:
class TasksController < ApplicationController
before_filter :load_user
def new
@task = @user.tasks.new
end
private
def load_user
@user = User.find(params[:user_id])
end
end
Finally here is my test:
require 'spec_helper'
describe TasksController do
before(:each) do
@user = Factory(:user)
@task = Factory(:task)
end
#GET New
describe "GET New" do
before(:each) do
User.stub!(:find).with(@user.id.to_s).and_return(@user)
@user.stub_chain(:tasks, :new).and_return(@task)
end
it "should return a new Task" do
@user.tasks.should_receive(:new).and_return(@task)
get :new, :user_id => @user.id
end
end
end
This test fails with the following output:
1) TasksController GET New should return a new Task
Failure/Error: get :new, :user_id => @user.id
undefined method `abstract_class?' for Object:Class

Can anybody help me understand what's going on here? It seems to be an RSpec problem since the controller action actually works, but I could be wrong.
Thanks,
Joe
