Module: ActiveModel::Lint::Tests

Relationships & Source Files
Defined in: activemodel/lib/active_model/lint.rb

Overview

You can test whether an object is compliant with the Active Model API by including Tests in your ::ActiveModel::TestCase. It will include tests that tell you whether your object is fully compliant, or if not, which aspects of the API are not implemented.

Note an object is not required to implement all APIs in order to work with Action Pack. This module only intends to provide guidance in case you want all features out of the box.

These tests do not attempt to determine the semantic correctness of the returned values. For instance, you could implement valid? to always return true, and the tests would pass. It is up to you to ensure that the values are semantically meaningful.

Objects you pass in are expected to return a compliant object from a call to to_model. It is perfectly fine for to_model to return self.

#test_persisted? ⇒ Boolean (readonly)

Responds to persisted?

Returns a boolean that specifies whether the object has been persisted yet. This is used when calculating the URL for an object. If the object is not persisted, a form for that object, for instance, will route to the create action. If it is persisted, a form for the object will routes to the update action.

Instance Method Details



  

    #test_errors_aref  
  



  

    

Errors Testing



Returns an object that implements [](attribute) defined which returns an ::Array of Strings that are the errors for the attribute in question. If localization is used, the Strings should be localized for the current locale. If no error is present, this method should return an empty ::Array.

# File 'activemodel/lib/active_model/lint.rb', line 97



def test_errors_aref
  assert model.respond_to?(:errors), "The model should respond to errors"
  assert model.errors[:hello].is_a?(Array), "errors#[] should return an Array"
end


  








  

    #test_model_naming  
  



  

    

Naming



Model.model_name and Model#model_name must return a string with some convenience methods: # :human, :singular and :plural. Check ::ActiveModel::Naming for more information.

# File 'activemodel/lib/active_model/lint.rb', line 79



def test_model_naming
  assert model.class.respond_to?(:model_name), "The model class should respond to model_name"
  model_name = model.class.model_name
  assert model_name.respond_to?(:to_str)
  assert model_name.human.respond_to?(:to_str)
  assert model_name.singular.respond_to?(:to_str)
  assert model_name.plural.respond_to?(:to_str)

  assert model.respond_to?(:model_name), "The model instance should respond to model_name"
  assert_equal model.model_name, model.class.model_name
end


  








  

    #test_to_key  
  



  

    

Responds to to_key



Returns an ::Enumerable of all (primary) key attributes or nil if model.persisted? is false. This is used by dom_id to generate unique ids for the object.


  



  [ GitHub ]


  

  


# File 'activemodel/lib/active_model/lint.rb', line 29



def test_to_key
  assert model.respond_to?(:to_key), "The model should respond to to_key"
  def model.persisted?() false end
  assert model.to_key.nil?, "to_key should return nil when `persisted?` returns false"
end


  








  

    #test_to_param  
  



  

    

Responds to to_param



Returns a string representing the object's key suitable for use in URLs or nil if model.persisted? is false.



Implementers can decide to either raise an exception or provide a default in case the record uses a composite primary key. There are no tests for this behavior in lint because it doesn't make sense to force any of the possible implementation strategies on the implementer. However, if the resource is not persisted?, then to_param should always return nil.

def test_to_param
  assert model.respond_to?(:to_param), "The model should respond to to_param"
  def model.to_key() [1] end
  def model.persisted?() false end
  assert model.to_param.nil?, "to_param should return nil when `persisted?` returns false"
end


  








  

    #test_to_partial_path  
  



  

    

Responds to to_partial_path



Returns a string giving a relative path. This is used for looking up partials. For example, a BlogPost model might return “blog_posts/blog_post”
