  Just to be a little bit clearer, I suggest something like this to be generated by e.g.
  rspec:

  
  describe BlogpostsController do
  
    def mock_blog
      @mock_blog ||= Object.new # or somerhing more elaborate maybe?
    end
  
    def mock_blogpost(stubs={})
      (@mock_blogpost ||= mock_model(Blogpost).as_null_object).tap do |blogpost|
        blogpost.stub(stubs) unless stubs.empty?
      end
    end
  
    describe "GET index" do
      it "assigns all blogposts as @blogposts" do
        Blog.stub(:find){ mock_blog }
        Blogpost.stub(:all) { [mock_blogpost] }
        get :index, :blog_id => 42
        assigns(:blogposts).should eq([mock_blogpost])
        assigns(:blog).should eq(mock_blog)
      end
    end

  • State changed from “new” to “wontfix”
  • Importance changed from “” to “Low”

  The following works fine for me in Test::Unit and RSpec

  # config/routes.rb
  resources :manufacturers, :only => :show do
    resources :products, :only => :index
  end
  
  # test/functional/products_controller_test.rb
  require 'test_helper'
  
  class ProductsControllerTest < ActionController::TestCase
    test "should get index" do
      get :index, :manufacturer_id => 1
      assert_response :success
    end
  end
  
  # specs/controller/products_controller_spec.rb
  require 'spec_helper'
  
  describe ProductsController do
    describe "GET index" do
      it "has a 200 status code" do
        get :index, :manufacturer_id => 1
        response.code.should eq("200")
      end
    end
  end
  

  Are you complaining that the auto generated scaffold tests are not taking account of the nested route? If so I think that's asking a bit much of something that's meant just to get you started on writing your tests. What about where a controller is used both in a nested and non-nested scope, e.g:

  resources :manufacturers, :only => :show do
    resources :products, :only => :index
  end
  
  resources :products, :only => [:index, :show]
  

  In this case you need two tests. As I said scaffold is just a guide to get you started - it's not there to build your application for you.
