When I run test by using following code:

$ bundle exec rspec spec/

then it should be pass which is written Michael hartl book in chapter 8 after section 8.2.4.

But i got error like:

Failure/Error: click_button "Sign in"      ActionView::MissingTemplate:        Missing template sessions/create, application/create with {:locale=>[:en], :formats=>[:html], :handlers=>[:erb, :builder, :coffee]}. Searched in:          * "/home/jaimin/rails3/rails_projects/sample_app/app/views"

How can I solve this error?

My authentication_pages_spec.rb :

require 'spec_helper'

describe "Authentication" do

  subject { page }

  describe "signin page" do     before { visit signin_path }

    it { should have_selector('h1', text: 'Sign in') }     it { should have_selector('title', text: 'Sign in') }   end

  describe "signin" do     before { visit signin_path }

    describe "with invalid information" do       before { click_button "Sign in" }

      it { should have_selector('title', text: 'Sign in') }       it { should have_selector('div.alert.alert-error', text: 'Invalid') }       describe "after visiting another page" do         before { click_link "Home" }         it { should_not have_selector('div.alert.alert-error') }       end     end

  describe "with valid information" do       let(:user) { FactoryGirl.create(:user) }       before do         fill_in "Email", with: user.email.upcase         fill_in "Password", with: user.password         click_button "Sign in"       end

      it { should have_selector('title', text: user.name) }       it { should have_link('Profile', href: user_path(user)) }       it { should have_link('Sign out', href: signout_path) }       it { should_not have_link('Sign in', href: signin_path) }     end   end end

Kind regards.

This indicates that your application is trying to render a template that matches your `create` method in your controller. Generally speaking, you don't want to render templates from controller methods that update your data base, such as `create`, `update`, and `destroy`, since this could result in the user sending the same request if they reload that page. So instead, you want to perform a redirect. Show us the controller source code and maybe someone can help with that. Or if this is enough a clue, carry on learning!

My sessions_controller source code file as follow:

class SessionsController < ApplicationController   def new   end

  def create      user = User.find_by_email(params[:session][:email].downcase)     if user && user.authenticate(params[:session][:password])       # Sign the user in and redirect to the user's show page.

    else       flash.now[:error] = 'Invalid email/password combination' # Not quite right!       render 'new'     end   end

  def destroy   end end

Kind regards.
