#
# should_set_the_flash_to "Thank you for placing this order."
# should_set_the_flash_to /created/i

# session is correct. Expects the session key as a parameter, and a block
# that returns the expected value.

# Macro that creates a test asserting that the controller returned a
# redirect to the given path. The passed description will be used when
# generating a test name. Expects a block that returns the expected path
# for the redirect.
#
# Example:
#
# should_redirect_to("the user's profile") { user_url(@user) }

# Macro that creates a routing test. It tries to use the given HTTP
# +method+ on the given +path+, and asserts that it routes to the
# given +options+.
#
# If you don't specify a :controller, it will try to guess the controller
# based on the current test.
#
# +to_param+ is called on the +options+ given.
#
# Examples:
#
# should_route :get, "/posts", :controller => :posts, :action => :index
# should_route :get, "/posts/new", :action => :new
# should_route :post, "/posts", :action => :create
# should_route :get, "/posts/1", :action => :show, :id => 1
# should_route :edit, "/posts/1", :action => :show, :id => 1
# should_route :put, "/posts/1", :action => :update, :id => 1
# should_route :delete, "/posts/1", :action => :destroy, :id => 1
# should_route :get, "/users/1/posts/1",
# :action => :show, :id => 1, :user_id => 1
