We now treat any external_id of blank string (" " or " " or "", etc) or a
invalid word (none, nil, blank, null) - case insensitive - as invalid.
In this case the client will see "please contact admin" the logs will explain
the reason clearly.
* Introduced fab!, a helper that creates database state for a group
It's almost identical to let_it_be, except:
1. It creates a new object for each test by default,
2. You can disable it using PREFABRICATION=0
`Upload#url` is more likely and can change from time to time. When it
does changes, we don't want to have to look through multiple tables to
ensure that the URLs are all up to date. Instead, we simply associate
uploads properly to `UserProfile` so that it does not have to replicate
the URLs in the table.
This change both speeds up specs (less strings to allocate) and helps catch
cases where methods in Discourse are mutating inputs.
Overall we will be migrating everything to use #frozen_string_literal: true
it will take a while, but this is the first and safest move in this direction
It is not a setting, and only relevant in specs. The new API is:
```
Jobs.run_later! # jobs will be thrown on the queue
Jobs.run_immediately! # jobs will run right away, avoid the queue
```
Previously if you wanted to have jobs execute in test mode, you'd have
to do `SiteSetting.queue_jobs = false`, because the opposite of queue
is to execute.
I found this very confusing, so I created a test helper called
`run_jobs_synchronously!` which is much more clear about what it does.
Use:
locale
locale_force_update
To force user locale on users where SiteSetting.allow_user_locale is enabled
Note: If an invalid locale is specified no action will occur
In some cases add_groups and remove_groups is too much work, some sites
may wish to simply synchronize group membership based on a list.
When sso_overrides_groups is on all not automatic group membership is
sourced from SSO. Note if you omit to specify groups, they will be cleared
out.
* `rescue nil` is a really bad pattern to use in our code base.
We should rescue errors that we expect the code to throw and
not rescue everything because we're unsure of what errors the
code would throw. This would reduce the amount of pain we face
when debugging why something isn't working as expexted. I've
been bitten countless of times by errors being swallowed as a
result during debugging sessions.
Use: add_groups with a comma delimited list to ensure a user is in groups (using group names)
Use: remove_groups with a comma delimited list to ensure a user is removed from groups (using group names)
Since rspec-rails 3, the default installation creates two helper files:
* `spec_helper.rb`
* `rails_helper.rb`
`spec_helper.rb` is intended as a way of running specs that do not
require Rails, whereas `rails_helper.rb` loads Rails (as Discourse's
current `spec_helper.rb` does).
For more information:
https://www.relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-rails/docs/upgrade#default-helper-files
In this commit, I've simply replaced all instances of `spec_helper` with
`rails_helper`, and renamed the original `spec_helper.rb`.
This brings the Discourse project closer to the standard usage of RSpec
in a Rails app.
At present, every spec relies on loading Rails, but there are likely
many that don't need to. In a future pull request, I hope to introduce a
separate, minimal `spec_helper.rb` which can be used in tests which
don't rely on Rails.
