ruby on rails - Controller testing Show page with Rspec, it gives an error nil & and render empty page -


i'm new tdd on rails, , i'm trying test videos_controller book "everyday rails testing rails" simple show page gives me error 'nil' & render empty, follows. don't know i'm doing wrong. please advise me. thank help.

spec/controllers/videos_controller_spec.rb

require 'spec_helper'  describe videoscontroller   describe "get show"    before {@video1 = video.create!(title: 'family guy', description: 'some description')}       "assigns requested video @video"       :show, id: @video1       assigns(:video).should == @video1     end      "render show tempalte"       :show, id: @video1       response.should render_template :show     end   end end 

app/controllers/videos_controller.rb

class videoscontroller < applicationcontroller   before_filter :require_user      def show      @video = video.find(params[:id])   end end 

error got in terminal:

failures:    1) videoscontroller show assigns requested video @video      failure/error: assigns(:video).should == @video1    expected: #<video id: 1, title: "family guy", small_cover_url: nil, large_cover_url: nil, description: "some description", created_at: "2013-05-13 00:12:32", updated_at: "2013-05-13 00:12:32">         got: nil (using ==)  # ./spec/controllers/videos_controller_spec.rb:9:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)>'    2) videoscontroller show render show tempalte      failure/error: response.should render_template :show    expecting <"show"> rendering <"">  # ./spec/controllers/videos_controller_spec.rb:14:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)> 

there before_filter in controller

before_filter :require_user 

you have not supplied required action in test, real action show has not been reached yet.

to fix, add necessary action creating user or login, before get :show
