Can anybody hint my why does this happen? I'm only starting learning
about
RoR 
Earlier it seemed to me that these 'get/post' methods of TestCase
do
respect routes.rb...
Am I missing something obvious?
With this controller:
class PagesController < ApplicationController
def index
end
def home
end
def contact
end
end
...and this single route:
T2App::Application.routes.draw do
root :to => "pages#index"
end
...and these tests:
require 'spec_helper'
describe PagesController do
describe "POST 'contact'" do
it "should be successful" do
post 'contact'
response.should be_success
end
end
describe "GET 'contact'" do
it "should be successful" do
get 'contact'
response.should be_success
end
end
end
I get these results:
$ bundle exec rspec spec/
No DRb server is running. Running in local process instead ...

Failed examples:
rspec ./spec/controllers/pages_controller_spec.rb:5 # PagesController
POST 'contact' should be successful
rspec ./spec/controllers/pages_controller_spec.rb:20 # PagesController
GET 'contact' should be successful
If I add a 'post' route to routes.db:
T2App::Application.routes.draw do
root :to => "pages#index"
post "pages/contact"
end
I get these results:
$ bundle exec rspec spec/
No DRb server is running. Running in local process instead ...

I I change the 'post' route to a 'get' route:
T2App::Application.routes.draw do
root :to => "pages#index"
get "pages/contact"
end
I get these results:
$ bundle exec rspec spec/
No DRb server is running. Running in local process instead ...
..

So to me it looks like if you define a get route or a post route, then
rspec allows both get and post requests.
