Method: Merb::Test::RequestHelper#mock_request

Defined in:

lib/merb-core/test/helpers/mock_request_helper.rb

#mock_request(path, params = {}, env = {}, &block) ⇒ Object

Deprecated.

A generic request that checks the router for the controller and action. This request goes through the Merb::Router and finishes at the controller.

Parameters

path<String>

The path that should go to the router as the request uri.

params<Hash>

An optional hash that will end up as params in the controller instance.

env<Hash>

An optional hash that is passed to the fake request. Any request options should go here (see fake_request).

&blk

The controller is yielded to the block provided for actions prior to the action being dispatched.

Example

request(path, { :name => 'Homer' }, { :request_method => "PUT" }) do |controller|
  controller.stub!(:current_user).and_return(@user)
end

Notes

Uses Routes.
