Instance Method Details

- (ValidAttribute::Matcher) have_valid(attr)

Assert an attribute is valid with any number of test values

examples: describe User do it { should have_valid(:name).when('Brian') } it { should_not have_valid(:name).when(nil) }

# if we want to test uniqueness we need to setup an existing value context 'email' do before { User.create(:email => 'brian@test.com') } it { should have_valid(:email).when('test@test.com', 'test+spam@gmail.com') } it { should_not have_valid(:email).when('abc', 123, 'brian@test.com') } end end

If you are using Test::Unit you should use Thoughtbot's shoulda-context: class UserTest < Test::Unit::TestCase should have_valid(:name).when('Brian') should_not have_valid(:name).when('nil')

# if we want to test uniqueness we need to setup an existing value context 'email' do setup { User.create(:email => 'brian@test.com') } should have_valid(:email).when('test@test.com', 'test+spam@gmail.com') should_not have_valid(:email).when('abc', 123, 'brian@test.com') end end
