Testing OAuth with Capybara/Rspec for Facebook - ruby-on-rails

Question

I'm writing a test for Facebook integration. When I run rspec, I get the following error
Failure/Error: before { click_link "Sign in with Facebook" }
NoMethodError:
undefined method `provider' for #<Hash:0x007fbe98511798>
# ./app/models/user.rb:55:in `from_omniauth'
My OAuth mock contains
OmniAuth.config.test_mode = true
OmniAuth.config.mock_auth[:facebook] = {
'uid' => "999999",
'provider' => "facebook",
'extra' => {
'user_hash' => {
'email' => 'test#gmail.com',
'first_name' => 'First',
'last_name' => 'Last',
'gender' => 'Male'
}
},
'credentials' => {
'token' => "token1234qwert"
}
}
The exact place it apparently breaks is
def self.from_omniauth(auth)
where("fb_provider = ? and fb_uid = ?", auth.provider, auth.uid.to_s).first_or_initialize.tap do |user|
But when I do a puts auth.to_yaml as the first line in from_omniauth(auth) it shows provider: facebook along with everything else I included in my mock auth. I'm lost at this point. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Your code should be this:
where("fb_provider = ? and fb_uid = ?", auth['provider'], auth['uid'].to_s ...
This is because auth in this instance is a Hash object and Hash objects do not respond to methods by the same name as their keys. Instead, you should just use the Hash#[] method -- as I've demonstrated -- to access the value for those keys.
