undefined method `assigns’ for
@user = User.new
end

it “assigns all users as @users” do
@user.stub(:all){[mock_user]}
post ‘index’
I change it as get ‘index’
it still gives me undefined method

I did like that

require ‘spec_helper’

describe “UserController” do
describe “GET index” do
it “should be successful” do
get ‘index’
response.should be_success
end

it "render the index template" do
  get :index
  response.should render_template('index')
end

 it "assigns all users as @users" do
   u =  Factory(:user)
   get :index
   assigns[:users].should == [p]
 end

end
end

it gives the the require error. However. I have a spec_helper.rb in
the spec dicrectory… kind of confusing

plz help me

rspec probably doesn’t understand that you’re testing a controller.

if your spec file looks like

require ‘spec_helper’

describe SomeController do
…
end

then it should detect that you’re speccing a controller

How are you running the spec ? either the rake task or running

rspec spec/…/my_spec.rb

should setup the load path correctly for you
