Rails 2.2 Integration tests cookie store

rubyonrails-talk

I've upgraded an existing application from 2.1 to 2.2.2. All of the integration tests failed, complaining about there being no 'secret' defined in the session_store configuration options. There isn't a secret defined, since we don't use the cookie session store (it's a wap site, and many phone browsers don't support cookies). Setting the secret to an appropriate value fixed all the tests.

It looks like the database_manager is hardcoded to be a CookieStore in rack_process.rb.

Is there any plan on getting integration tests to use the actual configured cookie store? Or should we be finding a better way to do higher level integration tests?

Thanks, Darren

What I ended up doing was overriding the default options in RackRequest.

In test.rb, I added

class ActionController::RackRequest   DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS = {     :database_manager => CGI::Session::MemoryStore, # store data in memory     :prefix => "ruby_sess.", # prefix session file names     :session_path => "/", # available to all paths in app     :session_key => "_session_id",     :cookie_only => false,     :session_http_only=> true   } end

I get a warning about the constant already being defined, but it's better than having the tests fail.

Also see <#1453 'get's in integration test unless you are using cookie sessions - Ruby on Rails - rails gets-in-integration-test-unless-you-are-using-cookie-sessions>.

Someone to give me the configuration for "config.action_controller.session_store = :active_record_store" ?!

Thanks.

Ok the good configuration for Session store une database by ActiveRecord is :

  class ActionController::RackRequest     DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS = {       :database_manager => CGI::Session::ActiveRecordStore,       :cookie_only => false,       :session_http_only=> true     }   end

Add this code in integration test.
