[Rails] Rspec devise, testing extended RegistrationController action destroy

Hi everyone,

I have devise 1.5.4 working with rails 3.0.20 and ruby 1.8.7 .

I have extended the destroy action from the RegistrationController, to soft delete users instead of really deleting them from the database.

def destroy

    # raise resouce.inspect # this is just to see if the test hits the action

    resource.soft_delete

    set_flash_message :notice, :destroyed

    sign_out resource

    redirect_to new_session_path(resource)

  end

This is working on the browser. 

When I try to write a test to the delete action, I get the test as passed but does not execute the code. Prove of that is I have put a raise on the action and it did not raise it. I have also tried to test the 'new action' just to see if it was hitting the right controller on the test and it worked with:

get :new

This means the mapping it correct for devise and its hitting the right controller.

But on my test I am doing:

delete :destroy, :profile => active_profile #active_profile is an instance of a factory

which should be the correct thing but it does not hit my action. I have tried a lot of different combinations:

post :destroy, :method => :delete

post :destroy

put :destroy

I have also tried to use a debugger on it and I can see it passes the test without hitting the action.

Can please somebody help me and tell me exactly what's the right call to this action?

Thanks,

Andre
