1. What happened?
1.1. Xander Miller gave us a great talk on writing Controller Specs.
The Talk
Xander Miller (Twitter | Blog) gave us an excellent talk on Testing Your Controllers with RSpec. He went through the RESTful controller actions (index, show, new, create, edit, update, destroy), and showed some tricks for handling each.
