Hi List,
I am doing some testing which involves an authentication method on my user controller. In production it actually uses PAM (on my linux system to an external LDAP server) to authenticate users but this is impractical for my testing. To get to the point I have:
require 'pam'
class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :blah
def authenticate(password) # some pam voodoo here end end
In my test/mocks/test directory I have:
require 'models/user'
class User < ActiveRecord::Base def authenticate(pass) pass == Digest::MD5.hexdigest(self.password) end end
However, whenever I run this test my associations fail. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Regards,
Daniel
