My application manages BusinessFlows, which can only be created within a parent BusinessArea. The 'new' method in BusinessFlows controller is:
def new
@business_area = BusinessArea.find(params[:business_area_id])
@business_flow = BusinessFlow.new
end
The Factory used for testing works fine, and creates the parent BusinessArea, and the the BusinessFlow as expected:
FactoryBot.define do
factory :business_flow do
association :parent, factory: :business_area
playground_id {0}
name {"Test Business Flow"}
code {Faker::Code.unique.rut}
description {"This is a test Business Flow used for unit testing"}
created_by {"Fred"}
updated_by {"Fred"}
owner_id {0}
responsible_id {0}
deputy_id {0}
organisation_id {0}
status_id {0}
end
end
But when it comes to test if the 'new' view can be displayed, the controller raises an error due to missing params[:business_area_id]:
ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound: Couldn't find BusinessArea without an ID
Here is the feature test script:
require 'rails_helper'
RSpec.describe BusinessFlow, type: :request do
include Warden::Test::Helpers
describe "Business Flows pages: " do
let(:bf) {FactoryBot.create(:business_flow)}
context "when not signed in " do
it "should propose to log in when requesting index view" do
get business_flows_path
follow_redirect!
expect(response.body).to include('Sign in')
end
it "should propose to log in when requesting new view" do
get new_business_flow_path
follow_redirect!
expect(response.body).to include('Sign in')
end
it "should propose to log in when requesting edit view" do
get edit_business_flow_path(bf)
follow_redirect!
expect(response.body).to include('Sign in')
end
it "should propose to log in when requesting show view" do
get business_flow_path(bf)
follow_redirect!
expect(response.body).to include('Sign in')
end
end
context "when signed in" do
before do
get "/users/sign_in"
test_user = FactoryBot.create(:user)
login_as test_user, scope: :user
end
it "should display index" do
get business_flows_path
expect(response).to render_template(:index)
end
it "should display new view" do
get new_business_flow_path(bf.parent.id)
expect(response).to render_template(:_form)
end
it "should display edit view" do
get edit_business_flow_path(bf)
expect(response).to render_template(:_form)
end
it "should display show view" do
get business_flow_path(bf)
expect(response).to render_template(:show)
end
end
end
end
Only the 'new' method test in the context 'when signed in' fails. Can you please help me solving this?
Thanks a lot!
it "should display new view" do
get new_business_flow_path(business_area_id: bf.parent)
expect(response).to render_template(:_form)
end
Rails thinks the id you're passing is part of the business flow path (and it isn't), it needs to be passed as a param I think.
