Testing view helpers



I'm currently working on a Rails plugin used for generating iPhone specific HTML meta-tags. I'm trying to use ActionView::TestCase for unit tests but keep getting the same error. See file contents and error below. Any ideas or help would be much appreciated.





test_helper.rb







require 'rubygems'

require 'test/unit'

require 'active_support'

require 'action_view'

require File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), '..', 'lib', 'iphone_helper')







iphone_test_helper.rb







require 'test_helper'



class IphoneHelperTest < ActionView::TestCase

test 'br' do

tag = tag('br')

assert_tag_in tag, '<br />'

end

end







error







RuntimeError: In order to use #url_for, you must include routing helpers explicitly. For instance, `include Rails.application.routes.url_helpers

  1. Awful and hacky workaround that worked for me (since I am working on a gem and not in a full rails environment):

    require 'ostruct'

    module ActionController::UrlFor
    def _routes
    helpers = OpenStruct.new
    helpers.url_helpers = Module.new
    helpers
    end
    end

  2. Did you try to include the respective Module in an old-fashioned way?:

    include ActionDispatch::Routing::RouteSet


    If a NameError is raised telling you that ActionDispatch is unknown you might have to require 'action_dispatch'.

  3. Maybe a stupid question, but is the fact that the class name and the file name don't match possibly a problem (IphoneHelperTest vs. iphone_test_helper.rb)? Sometimes that leads to classes not being loaded.

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
