cheat sheets.

# 'cheat assertions' for the rest

assert_generates(expected_path, options, defaults={}, extras = {}, message=nil)

Asserts that the provided options can be used to generate the provided path.
This is the inverse of assert_recognizes. The extras parameter is used to tell
the request the names and values of additional request parameters that would be
in a query string. The message parameter allows you to specify a custom error
message for assertion failures.

The defaults parameter is unused.

Examples

  # Asserts that the default action is generated for a route with no action
  assert_generates("/items", :controller => "items", :action => "index")

  # Tests that the list action is properly routed
  assert_generates("/items/list", :controller => "items", :action => "list")

  # Tests the generation of a route with a parameter
  assert_generates("/items/list/1", { :controller => "items", :action => "list",
  :id => "1" })

  # Asserts that the generated route gives us our custom route
  assert_generates "changesets/12", { :controller => 'scm', :action =>
  'show_diff', :revision => "12" }
