West Arete's spec layout

Over time, West Arete has developed a convention for how we organize our spec directories. This arrangement has been very successful for us over many years and many projects. We'd love to extract it into some kind of framework/gem, but have never managed/invested to do so. So at the very least we can share this writeup of what we've found to be useful, in the hope that it's useful to others.

The top level of our spec directory looks like this:

spec/
  spec_helper.rb

Friendly URLs in Rails

Friendly URLs

By default, Rails applications build URLs based on the primary key -- the id column from the database. Imagine we have a Person model and associated controller. We have a person record for Bob Martin that has id number 6. The URL for his show page would be:

/people/6

But, for aesthetic or SEO purposes, we want Bob's name in the URL. The last segment, the 6 here, is called the "slug". Let's look at a few ways to implement better slugs.
