trying to upgrade to Rails 4.2, using delayed_job_active_record. I've not set the delayed_job backend for test environment as thought that way jobs would execute straight away.
I'm trying to test the new 'deliver_later' method with Rspec, but I'm not sure how.
Old controller code:
ServiceMailer.delay.new_user(@user)
New controller code:
ServiceMailer.new_user(@user).deliver_later
I USED to test it like so:
expect(ServiceMailer).to receive(:new_user).with(@user).and_return(double("mailer", :deliver => true))
Now I get errors using that. (Double "mailer" received unexpected message :deliver_later with (no args))
Just
expect(ServiceMailer).to receive(:new_user)
fails too with 'undefined method `deliver_later' for nil:NilClass'
I've tried some examples that allow you to see if jobs are enqueued using test_helper in ActiveJob but I haven't managed to test that the correct job is queued.
expect(enqueued_jobs.size).to eq(1)
This passes if the test_helper is included, but it doesn't allow me to check it is the correct email that is being sent.
What I want to do is:
Any ideas?? thanks
If I understand you correctly, you could do:
message_delivery = instance_double(ActionMailer::MessageDelivery)
expect(ServiceMailer).to receive(:new_user).with(@user).and_return(message_delivery)
allow(message_delivery).to receive(:deliver_later)
The key thing is that you need to somehow provide a double for deliver_later
