Re: [turnip] How to use Devise's "sign_in"

[Harlow Ward]

Could you do something more like this and just have capybara replicate the steps a regular user would sign in with:

module SessionSteps

  step "i am logged in" do

     @user = mock_user # or use FactoryGirl to create a user in the database?

     visit sign_in_path

     fill_in 'Email', with: @user.email

     fill_in 'Password', with: @user.password

     click_button 'Sign in'

  end

end

RSpec.configure { |config| config.include SessionSteps }

I've defined this step:

    sign_in @user

  end

end

RSpec.configure { |config| config.include SessionSteps }

And have this feature:

Feature: list contacts

  In order to see my contacts

  As a user

  I want to list contacts

  Background: logged inq

    Given i am logged in

  Scenario: Only one contact

    Given i only have "Dwayne" on my contacts lists

    When i go to contacts page with no filters

    Then i should find "Dwayne"

I get the error:  "undefined method `env' for nil:NilClass"

Reading Devise's docs I find this is because sign_in helper should be used in controller tests. In my specs it works just fine.

What am I doing wrong?
