Module: RoleRequirementTestHelper

Defined in:
lib/role_requirement_test_helper.rb

Overview

Include this is test_helper.rb to enable test-case helper support for RoleRequirement via:

include RoleRequirementTestHelper

RoleRequirementTestHelper uses the power of ruby to temporarily “hijack” your target action. (don’t worry, it puts things back the way it was after it runs) This means that the only thing that will be tested is whether or not the action can be accessed with a given circumstances. Any authentication you implement inside of your action will be ignored.
