Instance Method Details

#bypass_rescue ⇒ Object

Extends the controller with a module that overrides rescue_with_handler to raise the exception passed to it. Use this to specify that an action should raise an exception given appropriate conditions.

Examples:

describe ProfilesController do
  it "raises a 403 when a non-admin user tries to view another user's profile" do
    profile = create_profile
     profile.user
    expect do
      bypass_rescue
      get :show, :id => profile.id + 1
    end.to raise_error(/403 Forbidden/)
  end
end
