问题
I'm trying to create a spec for a sign out flow by using factorygirl to create a user and then use Devise's sign_in method to authenticate the user, then use capybara to click the "Sign Out" link.
I'm getting (what seems to me to be) a strange error when I run the spec:
Failures:
1) Sign out flow successfully redirects to the welcome index (root)
Failure/Error: Unable to find matching line from backtrace
NoMethodError:
undefined method `env' for nil:NilClass
# /home/vagrant/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p576/gems/devise-3.4.1/lib/devise/test_helpers.rb:24:in `setup_controller_for_warden'
Finished in 0.00226 seconds (files took 3.32 seconds to load)
1 example, 1 failure
Here's the spec:
require 'rails_helper'
describe "Sign out flow" do
include Devise::TestHelpers
describe "successfully" do
it "redirects to the welcome index (root)" do
user = create(:user)
sign_in user
within '.user-info' do
click_link 'Sign Out'
end
expect(current_path).to eq root_path
end
end
end
And my user.rb factory:
FactoryGirl.define do
factory :user do
name "Fake User"
sequence(:email, 100) { |n| "person#{n}@example.com" }
password "helloworld"
password_confirmation "helloworld"
confirmed_at Time.now
end
end
The error seems to be triggered simply from the line include Devise::TestHelpers, as I've tried commenting out the entire content of the spec and still get the same error.
I thought the Devise test helpers would work out of the box; did I miss some configuration? Thanks.
回答1:
Apparently there are issues with Devise::TestHelpers and integration testing, so perhaps that's the problem here.
https://github.com/plataformatec/devise (mentioned in README, Issues, etc.; also see related SO questions):
These helpers are not going to work for integration tests driven by Capybara or Webrat. They are meant to be used with functional tests only. Instead, fill in the form or explicitly set the user in session;
回答2:
In Rails 5 you must include Devise::Test::IntegrationHelpers instead Devise::Test::ControllerHelpers:
# rails_helper.rb
config.include Devise::Test::IntegrationHelpers, type: :feature

FWIW it seems like the issues have been fixed, however I ran into the issue after not reading the documentation well enough.
This was our code:
RSpec.configure do |config|
...
config.include Devise::TestHelpers
...
end
This means every test will include the test helpers, including models. This wound up being the issue for us. Should we have read the documentation closer we would have noticed Devise suggests limiting it to only controllers with:
RSpec.configure do |config|
...
config.include Devise::TestHelpers, type: :controller
...
end
This solved the issue for us. All tests passing :)

Here's my solution:
class ActiveSupport::TestCase
# all the normal stuff
end
class ActionController::TestCase
include Devise::TestHelpers
end

I meet the same error on rails 5. Here's my solution
spec/rails_helper.rb
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.include Devise::TestHelpers, type: :controller
config.include Devise::TestHelpers, type: :view
config.include Warden::Test::Helpers
end
spec/controllers/your_controller_spec.rb
RSpec.describe YourController, type: :controller do
before(:all) do
user = FactoryGirl.create(:user)
login_as user, scope: :user
end
it "#index" do
get "index"
expect(response).to render_template(:index)
expect(response).to have_http_status(200)
end
$ rspec --tag focus
Run options: include {:focus=>true}
DashboardController
#index

Like others have already said, you're including the Devise::TestHelpers. That's for testing controllers. If you'd still like to automatically login a test user in your integration tests, check out the official Devise Instructions on using it with Capybara.
Using Devise with Capybara
Basically, what you need to do is first enable Warden's test mode:
include Warden::Test::Helpers
Warden.test_mode!
Then, (create and) login your user:
user = FactoryGirl.create(:user)
login_as(user, scope: :user)
Example:
# spec/features/survey_spec.rb
require 'rails_helper'
feature 'survey app' do
include Warden::Test::Helpers
let(:user) { create(:user) }
let(:survey) { create(:survey_with_questions) }
before do
# Sign the User in
Warden.test_mode!
login_as(user, scope: user)
end
it 'renders the survey' do
visit survey_show_path(survey)
expect(page).to have_content(survey.title)
end
end

My Devise version is 4.2.0 so I just included
config.include Devise::Test::ControllerHelpers, type: :controller
in my rails helper file.
Alternatively you can use the same in your spec as
include Devise::Test::ControllerHelpers
回答8:
The correct syntax for Rails 5 / Devise (4.2.0) is
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.include Devise::Test::ControllerHelpers, :type => :controller
end
Devise::TestHelpersare deprecated so useDevise::Test::ControllerHelpers:type => :controller- to limit only for controllers and not models for example.

I was having this problem when trying to sign_in a user in a before hook:
before(:context) do
create(:skill, name: 'Google Maps API'.downcase)
user = create(:user)
sign_in user
end
Placing sign_in inside the before hook leads to:
Failure/Error: sign_in user
NoMethodError:
undefined method `env' for nil:NilClass
But placing it inside an example works fine:
shared_examples_for('an authenticated resource.') do
describe 'An authenticated request' do
it "responds with HTTP status OK" do
user = create(:user)
sign_in user
make_request
expect(response).to have_http_status(:ok)
end
end
end
But this can be improved, placing the sign_in into a before(:example) that will also work:
context 'allow search by keyword' do
let!(:skill){ create(:skill, name: 'Google Maps API'.downcase) }
let!(:user) { create(:user) }
before(:example) { sign_in user }
it 'finds matching records' do
get :search, name: "Google Maps API", format: :json
expect(assigns(:skills).size).to be(1)
end
it 'finds records that start with keyword'
it 'finds records that end with keyword'
it 'finds records that contains keyword'
end

For the sake of being complete, with Rails 5 and RSpec I have run into similar issues when using the latest helpers, as they need to be set explicitly with the type when not used as a superclass.
So if you find yourself receiving there errors in your model tests there's a pretty good chance the type is not set.
Here's what I use in the spec_helper:
config.include Devise::Test::ControllerHelpers, type: :controller
config.include Devise::Test::ControllerHelpers, type: :view
config.include Devise::Test::IntegrationHelpers, type: :feature
I know that the docs do mention this, but there are times when you may run across an older blog that gives you an older approach, or upgrading from an older setup, and next thing you know this happens.
