Provides access to the params hash that will be available within the view:
params[:foo] = 'bar'
# File lib/rspec/rails/example/view_example_group.rb, line 79 def params controller.params end
@overload render @overload render({:partial => path_to_file}) @overload render({:partial => path_to_file}, {... locals ...}) @overload render({:partial => path_to_file}, {... locals ...}) do ... end
Delegates to ActionView::Base#render, so see documentation on that for more info.
The only addition is that you can call render with no arguments, and RSpec will pass the top level description to render:
describe "widgets/new.html.erb" do it "shows all the widgets" do render # => view.render(:file => "widgets/new.html.erb") # ... end end
# File lib/rspec/rails/example/view_example_group.rb, line 44 def render(options={}, local_assigns={}, &block) options = _default_render_options if Hash === options and options.empty? super(options, local_assigns, &block) end
@deprecated Use `rendered` instead.
# File lib/rspec/rails/example/view_example_group.rb, line 90 def response # `assert_template` expects `response` to implement a #body method # like an `ActionDispatch::Response` does to force the view to render. # For backwards compatibility, we use #response as an alias for # #rendered, but it needs to implement #body to avoid `assert_template` # raising a `NoMethodError`. unless rendered.respond_to?(:body) def rendered.body; self; end; end rendered end
Simulates the presence of a template on the file system by adding a Rails' FixtureResolver to the front of the view_paths list. Designed to help isolate view examples from partials rendered by the view template that is the subject of the example.
@example
stub_template("widgets/_widget.html.erb" => "This content.")
# File lib/rspec/rails/example/view_example_group.rb, line 71 def stub_template(hash) view.view_paths.unshift(ActionView::FixtureResolver.new(hash)) end
@deprecated Use `view` instead.
# File lib/rspec/rails/example/view_example_group.rb, line 84 def template RSpec.deprecate("template","view") view end
The instance of `ActionView::Base` that is used to render the template. Use this to stub methods before calling `render`.
describe "widgets/new.html.erb" do it "shows all the widgets" do view.stub(:foo) { "foo" } render # ... end end
# File lib/rspec/rails/example/view_example_group.rb, line 59 def view _view end
