Destroy an object only by its user creator in Rspec - ruby-on-rails

Question

I have updated the code spec code.
What I seek is to destroy a record only with the same user that has created it.
I've tried in the view section and it seems to be working, but the Rspec is throwing me some errors.
Can anyone please tell me how to do a correct spec?
Thanks
My Record model:
class Record < ActiveRecord::Base
#Associations
belongs_to :user
# Validations
validates :user, presence: true
end
My Record factory:
FactoryGirl.define do
factory :record do
user
end
end
My Record controller:
class RecordsController < ApplicationController
before_action :find_record, only: [:show, :edit, :update, :destroy]
before_action :require_permission, only: [:destroy]
def destroy
#record.destroy
flash[:notice] = "The record was deleted successfully"
redirect_to #record
end
private
def require_permission
if current_user != Record.find(params[:id]).user
flash[:notice] = "Permission required"
redirect_to root_path
end
end
end
My record spec:
require 'rails_helper'
describe RecordsController do
let(:record) { create(:record) }
let(:user) { create(:user) }
describe "#destroy" do
let!(:record) { create(:record) }
#UPDATED
login_user
it "deletes the record" do
expect {
delete :destroy, id: record.id, :record => {:user => record.user}
}.to change(Record, :count).by(-1)
expect(flash[:notice]).to eq("The record was deleted successfully")
end
end
end
UPDATE 2
rails_helper.rb
require 'spec_helper'
require 'devise'
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.include Devise::TestHelpers, type: :controller
config.extend ControllerMacros, type: :controller
end
at spec/support/controller_macros.rb
module ControllerMacros
def login_admin
before(:each) do
#request.env["devise.mapping"] = Devise.mappings[:admin]
sign_in FactoryGirl.create(:admin) # Using factory girl as an example
end
end
def login_user
before(:each) do
#request.env["devise.mapping"] = Devise.mappings[:user]
user = FactoryGirl.create(:user)
#user.confirm! # or set a confirmed_at inside the factory. Only necessary if you are using the "confirmable" module
sign_in user
end
end
end
My errors:
#destroy
deletes the record (FAILED - 1)
Failures:
1) RecordsController#destroy deletes the record
Failure/Error: expect {
expected #count to have changed by -1, but was changed by 0

Answer 1

you use #record but you let record that's why in error #record is nil
it "deletes the record" do
expect {
delete :destroy, id: record.id, :record => {:user => record.user}
}.to change(Record, :count).by(-1)
expect(flash[:notice]).to eq("The record was deleted successfully")
end
