No rhyme or reason as to failure. Just depends on the order of the specs.

It's interesting that active_class is available to be called here. I presume ApplicationHelper gets mixed in to ApplicationController and so is available to all the other controllers/views. HOWEVER, here in my spec, I call the method alone. I don't it as an instance method, ApplicationController.new.active_class(tag). Will have to dig into this more. Wanted to make a note here tho.
require 'spec_helper'
describe ApplicationHelper do
describe "#active_class", unit: true do
let(:tag) { create(:tag) }
context "when a Tag's 'id' is included the @tag_ids string" do
it "returns the text 'active'" do
@tag_ids = "#{tag.id}, 4, 67, "
expect(active_class(tag)).to eq 'active'
end
end
context "when a Tag's 'id is not included in the @tag_ids string" do
it "returns nil" do
@tag_ids = "tag ids that don't match "
expect(active_class(tag)).to be_nil
end
end
end
end
I stubbed a before_action and also the SearchHandler.find_notes() method. This kinda messy?
The only other way this test passes is if I create real objects. Or, I could roll the expectation into a different test. You know, have a test with two expectations...
describe SearchController do
...
describe "GET #revise" do
it "assigns tag query string to @tag_ids" do
tag_ids = "1, 3, 5, 8, "
SearchController.any_instance.stub(:verify_tags)
SearchHandler.stub(:find_notes)
get :revise, collection_id: collection, tag_list: tag_ids
expect(assigns(:tag_ids)).to eq tag_ids
end
end
Hidden Elements, Capybara
I know Capybara isn't designed to interact w hidden elements, still, a bunch of people are able to get this to work, why can't I?
scenario "search for note with invalid tags", js: true, features: true do
find(:xpath, "//input[@id='tag_list']").set "invalid tag "
# find('#tag_list', visible: false).set "invalid tag "
click_button 'Find Notes'
expect(current_path).to eq collection_new_search_path(@collection)
expect(page).to have_content "Rails"
expect(page).to have_content "Ruby"
expect(page).to have_content "Postgres"
expect(page).to have_content "Uh oh. No record found. Try another search!!"
expect(page).to have_content "Edit Note"
end
Using xpath, I can't even find the element.
1) Find notes search for note with invalid tags
Failure/Error: find(:xpath, "//input[@id='tag_list']").set "invalid tag "
Capybara::ElementNotFound:
Unable to find xpath "//input[@id='tag_list']"
# ./spec/features/search_spec.rb:61:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>'
Using css selectors, I can find, but not set the value.
1) Find notes search for note with invalid tags
Failure/Error: find('#tag_list', visible: false).set("invalid tag ")

If I'm working in a coffee shop or anywhere similar, should I be using some kind of network security setup?
I think my PATH variable is all screwed up. Should it be this long?

I need a good intro level book on unix operating systems. And, I don't really understand the file structure of my OS. You know, questions like, what is bin/ and why does it exist?
####Testing dependent::destroy
I'm testing that when I destroy Notes or Tags, the related Taggings are also removed. Should this be a Controller test or a Model test.
