Hi,
I have this code in my controller and want to test this code line with a functional test.
raise ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound if @post.nil?
which assert method should I use? I use the built-in rails 2.3.5 test framework.
I tried it with this code:
test "should return 404 if page doesn't exist." do
get :show, :url => ["nothing", "here"]
assert_response :missing
end
but it doesn't work for me. Got this test output:
test_should_return_404_if_page_doesn't_exist.(PageControllerTest):
ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound: ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound
app/controllers/page_controller.rb:7:in `show'
/test/functional/page_controller_test.rb:21:in `test_should_return_404_if_page_doesn't_exist.'
