Conditional validation testing

[Ricardo Panaggio]

Hello,

It seems there's no "shoulda way" to test conditional validations. Am I missing something?

Ricardo, After specifying the subject explicitly, you can test validations that are based on a particular state of the object.

Test::Unit:

context "An object with validation enforced" do

  subject { Object.new(:enforce_validation => true) }

  should validate_presence_of :title

end

RSpec:

describe "An object with validation enforced" do

  subject { Object.new(:enforce_validation => true) }

  it { should validate_presence_of :title }

end
