Controller::Testing::Kwargs

Backport Rails 5 style controller/integration testing syntax using kwargs to Rails 4

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'controller-testing-kwargs'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install controller-testing-kwargs

Usage

Allows you to simultaneously use the old and new syntax while making HTTP calls to your controllers in your test suite. So both:

get #{url_or_action}, params, headers
xhr :post, #{url_or_action}, params, headers

and

get #{url_or_action}, params: params, headers: headers
get #{url_or_action}, xhr: true, params: params, headers: headers

should work while you transition your test suite.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
