I am currently between Listing 10.32 and 10.33 of this tutorial: http://ruby.railstutorial.org/chapters/user-microposts#sec-manipulating_microposts
And I have ran into a problem while running the test. The output is as follows:
Failures:

Failure/Error: expect { click_button "Post" }.not_to change(Micropost, :count)

And here is the currently failing test:

it "should create a micropost" do
expect { click_button "Post" }.to change(Micropost, :count).by(1)
end
end
end
end
Which means the #micropost variable is clearly not being set, but it is set in the static pages controller. I have checked for a while now do discover differences from the tutorial, but have not succeeded in finding any.
The git repository is here: https://github.com/afuhrtrumpet/sample_app/tree/user-microposts
Does anyone see this issue?
The issue was a missing '=' sign here:
<%= f.text_area :content, placeholder: "Compose new micropost..." %>

I am currently working on Chapter 8 of Michael Hartl's Ruby on Rails tutorial. I encountered a problem with my tests failing and tried to solve this myself, but I realize it's useless, so I have to ask here. Here is the error message I'm getting.

else

flash.now[:error] = 'Invalid email/password combination'
render 'new'
end
end

end
end
The main failure I'm trying to solve, that should be green is 1. I passed the flash.now hash to indicate that I want the flash to disappear after a second request, but rspec says no.
I'm stumped as to what the problem is. Any help would be greatly appreciated
RSpec tells you that method sign_in does not exists. If you look at the chapter 8.2.2 you will find a helper with this method.
#app/helpers/sessions_helper.rb
module SessionsHelper
def sign_in(user)
remember_token = User.new_remember_token
cookies.permanent[:remember_token] = remember_token
user.update_attribute(:remember_token, User.digest(remember_token))
self.current_user = user
end
end
Can anyone who has done this exercises help me out?
It's my first time using this programming language and not much to this, but I need to finish well until chapter 10 that is a final evaluation.

If your code is formatted like this:
describe "edit" do
let(:user) { FactoryGirl.create(:user) }
before do
sign_in user
visit edit_user_path(user)
describe "page" do
it { should have_content("Update your profile") }
it { should have_title("Edit user") }
it { should have_link('change', href: 'http://gravatar.com/emails') }
end
I can see that it is probably broken without reading any of your code.
Are all your code blocks properly closed? Does not look so!
In addition to the unclosed blocks that phoet pointed out, which are causing your "undefined method describe" errors, you're getting errors in /app/views/users/index.html.erb line 5. The error is undefined method `each' for nil:NilClass which means there's a variable on that line that you're doing variable.each with, but you're either not setting that variable or when you're setting it, it's getting set to nil.
In general, the way for you to successfully get through this is to read the error messages and try to fix what they're complaining about. If you search for each error message individually, you'll find stack overflow questions about the specific issue that will help you.
I am following Hartl's Rails tutorial but I used devise/cancan/rolify so some things are not the same.
On my users_pages_spec.rb test, I keep getting this error in spite of all I tried:
1) User pages index delete links as an admin user
Failure/Error: sign_in #superadmin
NoMethodError:

3) User pages index delete links as an admin user should be able to delete another user

I don't understand why, does nil::nilClass mean factory girl actually does not manage to create this superadmin user?
Here is the sample of my user_pages_spec.rb file:
require 'spec_helper'
require 'cancan/matchers'
# Test if targeted words appears in displayed content
describe "User pages" do
subject { page }
let(:user) { FactoryGirl.create(:user) }
let(:wrong_user) { FactoryGirl.create(:user, email: "wrong#example.com") }
let(:non_admin) { FactoryGirl.create(:user) }
let(:submit) { "Sign in" }
describe "index" do
describe "delete links" do
it { should_not have_link('delete') }
describe "as an admin user" do
let(:superadmin) { FactoryGirl.create(:superadmin) }
before do
sign_in #superadmin
visit users_path
end
it { should have_title('List of users') }
it { should have_link('delete', href: user_path(User.first)) }
it "should be able to delete another user" do
expect { click_link('delete') }.to change(User, :count).by(-1)
end
it { should_not have_link('delete', href: user_path(superadmin)) }
end
end
end
end
my spec/utilities.rb defining sign_in method
include ApplicationHelper
def sign_in(user)
visit new_user_session_path
fill_in "Email", with: user.email
fill_in "Password", with: user.password
click_button "Login"
#populate cookie when not using capybara
cookies[:authentication_token] = user.authentication_token
end
and my spec/factories/user.rb
FactoryGirl.define do
factory :user do
sequence(:name) { |n| "Person #{n}" }
sequence(:email) { |n| "person_#{n}#example.com"}
password "beta"
password_confirmation "beta"
# required if the Devise Confirmable module is used
confirmed_at Time.now
confirmation_token nil
factory :superadmin do
after(:create) {|user| user.add_role(:superadmin)}
end
end
end
I do have in cancan/rolify a superadmin role defined.
If anybody has a clue, I'd take it! i can update the question with additional file needed if not already here.
Your let call is setting superadmin, but you're referencing #superadmin, which is going to be nil, since it hasn't been set. BTW, this is a good reason to generally avoid using instance variables in your tests, as they silently default to nil when referenced if uninitialized.

Check your config/routes.rb file to make sure that:
match '/signin', to: 'sessions#new'
matches what your session controllers is seeing. The create method for your "sessions_controller.rb" should have:
def create
user = User.find_by_email(params[:session][:email].downcase)
if user && user.authenticate(params[:session][:password])
sign_in user
redirect_back_or user
else
flash.now[:error] = 'Invalid email/password combination'
render 'new'
end
end
Just my guess. I'm currently around that area too in the tutorial. Best of luck and I hope that helps!
A bit late probably but anyways...
Check if you got "include SessionsHelper" in app/controllers/application_controller.rb
helpers are included into views by default but you have to explicitly include them in controllers
Im following [Michael Hartl's tutorial][1] and did the exercises in Chapter 7, and now have 4 errors that I cant figure out how to fix for the life of me. When I test the production app manually, the errors dont exist at all. So I don't know if there is something wrong with my text development or something, but Im at a total loss so I thought I'd post here to see if my total noobness is blinding me...thanks for your help!

Here's the template code for views/users/show.html.erb
<% provide(:title, #user.name) %>
<div class="row">
<aside class="span4">
<section>
<h1>
<%= gravatar_for #user %>
<%= #user.name %>
</h1>
</section>
</aside>
</div>
and then here's the users_controller.rb
class UsersController < ApplicationController
def show
#user = User.find(params[:id])
end
def new
#user = User.new
end
def create
#user = User.new(params[:user])
if #user.save
sign_in #user
flash[:success] = "Welcome to the Sample App!"
redirect_to #user
else
render 'new'
end
end
end
Allright y'all,
I dont know if not answering my question was some sort of torturous initiation for noobs in this forum, but after almost 24 hours and a good night sleep, I solved the problem!
After a few G searches, I found that I could be stopping some of the variables from passing through by having "end" in the wrong places. It turns out there were 2 main areas where I was doing this. Once I found and fixed those, all the errors went away.
I will now pat myself on the back. I hope this helps any total noobs who run into this same problem in the future.
