def assert_blank(object, message=nil)
  message ||= "#{object.inspect} is not blank"
  assert object.blank?, message
end

#assert_difference(expression, difference = 1, message = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

Test numeric difference between the return value of an expression as a result of what is evaluated in the yielded block.

assert_difference 'Article.count' do
  post :create, :article => {...}
end

An arbitrary expression is passed in and evaluated.

assert_difference 'assigns(:article).comments(:reload).size' do
  post :create, :comment => {...}
end

An arbitrary positive or negative difference can be specified. The default is +1.

assert_difference 'Article.count', -1 do
  post :delete, :id => ...
end

An array of expressions can also be passed in and evaluated.

assert_difference [ 'Article.count', 'Post.count' ], +2 do
  post :create, :article => {...}
end

A lambda or a list of lambdas can be passed in and evaluated:

assert_difference lambda { Article.count }, 2 do
  post :create, :article => {...}
end

assert_difference [->{ Article.count }, ->{ Post.count }], 2 do
  post :create, :article => {...}
end

A error message can be specified.

assert_difference 'Article.count', -1, "An Article should be destroyed" do
  post :delete, :id => ...
end

    assert_equal(before[i] + difference, e.call, error)
  end
end

#assert_no_difference(expression, message = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

Assertion that the numeric result of evaluating an expression is not changed before and after invoking the passed in block.

assert_no_difference 'Article.count' do
  post :create, :article => invalid_attributes
end

A error message can be specified.

assert_no_difference 'Article.count', "An Article should not be created" do
  post :create, :article => invalid_attributes
end

#assert_present(object, message = nil) ⇒ Object
