assert_redirected_to doesn't support regular expression matching
Reported by Nathaniel Bibler | October 29th, 2009 @ 03:44 PM
The assert_redirected_to testing assertion does not
properly match against regular expressions. In fact, I'm currently
seeing the following error:
def test_redirect
get :index
assert_redirect_to %r{fubar}
end
# 1) Error:
# NoMethodError: undefined method `regexp_url' for #<FooController:0x111111>
I'll likely take a stab at a patch, shortly, just wanted to make the ticket.

Nathaniel,
According to the documentation of
assert_redirected_tothe method isn't supposed to support regular expressions - I think the error you're seeing is a side effect of that.If you think regular expressions should be supported please do post a ticket with a patch. This ticket, however, can be marked as invalid.
