The following are custom assertions that people have written. See also the Plugins and HowToWriteYourOwnCustomAssertions.
View Assertions
Most of these duplicate existing functionality, in a more terse, time-saving fashion.
- assert_tag_name: Assert that a tag exists with the given name attribute. Other options are passed to #assert_tag.
def assert_tag_name(name, opts={})
opts.symbolize_keys!
opts[:attributes] ||= {}
opts[:attributes].merge!(:name => name)
assert_tag opts
end
- assert_tag_id: Assert that a tag exists with the given id attribute. Other options are passed to #assert_tag.
def assert_tag_id(id, opts={})
opts.symbolize_keys!
opts[:attributes] ||= {}
opts[:attributes].merge!(:id => id)
assert_tag opts
end
- assert_input_field: Assert that an INPUT tag exists with the given name attribute. Other options are passed to #assert_tag.
def assert_input_field(name, opts={})
assert_tag_name name, opts.merge(:tag => ’input’)
end
- assert_input_fields: For each name supplied, assert that an INPUT tag exists with a matching name attribute.
def assert_input_fields(*names)
names.each {|name| assert_input_field name}
end
Model Assertions
- assert_uniqueness_err: Assert that the model object, when saved, gives a uniqueness validation error on the specified field.
def assert_uniqueness_err(object, field)
assert !object.save
assert_equal 1, object.errors.count
assert_equal “has already been taken”, object.errors.on(field.to_sym)
end
- assert_presence_of_err: Assert that the model object, when saved, gives presence_of validation error on the specified field.
def assert_presence_of_err(object, field)
assert !object.save
assert_equal 1, object.errors.count
assert_equal “can’t be blank”, object.errors.on(field.to_sym)
end
