Fix `WrongScopeError` being thrown on Rails master: #2215

Edouard-chin · 2019-12-02T14:33:09Z

Fix WrongScopeError being thrown on Rails master:

Problem

Rails made a change in rails/rails@d4367eb
and TestFixtures don't make use of method_name anymore, but simply
name.

name on RSpec raises a WrongScopeError when called within an
example.

This patch overrides name to return the example name instead.

jasnow · 2019-12-02T14:55:18Z

Appears the fix triggered an existing rubocop error.

lib/rspec/rails/fixture_support.rb

JonRowe

A minor change suggested, and is there a test that fails without this?

Edouard-chin · 2019-12-04T14:25:33Z

Thanks for the quick review. I made the suggested changes

JonRowe · 2019-12-04T15:48:53Z

lib/rspec/rails/fixture_support.rb

            end
          end

+          if ::ActiveRecord.version >= Gem::Version.new('6.1.0')


Sorry you can't use Gem::Version, as we don't have a dependency on rubygems being available. A simple

Suggested change

if ::ActiveRecord.version >= Gem::Version.new('6.1.0')

if Rails.version.to_f > 6.0

is preferred.

Rubygem is part of the standard library since ruby 1.9. I can use Rails.version.to_f if you really want to but I don't see any real reason

We don't load any part of the standard library unless 100% necessary as it causes environment poisoning (where someone might not have required the right file but we do, tests pass, but it fails outside of tests). There is also a speed benefit to not using rubygems which we ourselves utilise in our tests by disabling it (which gives us the speed benefit and tests we're not poisoning the env).

e.g Its simpler to not use it so please don't :)

Ok I'll use Rails.version.to_f, thanks for quick answer :)

Not trying to argue on such a small detail but Rails.version already loads rubygem 🤷‍♂ . But anyway having the syntax you proposed will make things consistent since that's what it's used in this library.

    end
+
+    it "doesn't raise a WrongScopeError on Rails 6.1" do
+      allow(ActiveRecord).to receive(:version) { Gem::Version.new('6.1.0') }


Proposed change removes this necessity

JonRowe · 2019-12-05T20:23:02Z

If you rebase this the rubocop build should be fixed

jasnow · 2019-12-08T13:35:10Z

@Edouard-chin - Looking forward to this fixed version.

Thanks @pirj. I just reran the 2 builds, the issue on json seems to be fixed now.

@Edouard-chin thanks a lot for the last commit. Do you think you can handle @JonRowe review?

Thanks :)

Edouard-chin · 2019-12-12T16:12:24Z

Do you think you can handle @JonRowe review?

Sure happy to, but which comment did I not address ? If you are referring to #2215 (comment) I added a test to load fixtures

benoittgt · 2019-12-13T08:01:40Z

Sorry @Edouard-chin. I just noticed. @JonRowe are you ok with the last changes?

Cheers :)

This test can be removed, the other is fine.

Nearly there, thanks for working on this!

Rebased and CI is 🍏 . Thanks for your patience

Rails 6.1 requires an upgrade to rspec-rails 4.0.0 which fixes a WrongScopeError: rspec/rspec-rails#2215 Rspec-rails 4.0.0 dropped support for Rails below 5.0, so Rails 4 has been removed from the appraisals.

It seems like rails 6.1 broke rspec <4.0 until it was fixed with rspec/rspec-rails#2215 then fixed differently with rspec/rspec-rails#2461 so we skip rspec 3x with rails 6.1 in CI

It seems like rails 6.1 broke rspec-rails. RSpec-rails 4.0 fixed it with rspec/rspec-rails#2215 then fixed differently with rspec/rspec-rails#2461 so we skip rspec-rails >4 with rails 6.1 in CI

Some of the missing combinations in the matrix: * Ruby 3 with Rails 5.2 are skipped because my tests error when trying to start rails * Rspec-rails 3 with Rails 6.1 because of a rails change rspec-rails needs rspec/rspec-rails#2215 or the more recent rspec/rspec-rails#2461

There's an issue with Rails 6.1 that caused error `WrongScopeError`, which was only fixed in rspec-rails 4.0 by rspec#2215.
