Mon, 26 Jul 2010 13:15:53 UT
Hi, In my functional tests it was convenient to use: @controller.expects(:admin?).a t_least_once.returns(true) to simulate requests which come from an admin user. But it seems that in Rails 2.3.8 it's gone away. What replaces it now? Thanks

First you need to define "best". What is the overall rating for each post? Good minus bad? Total good and ignore the bad? Something more complex? How many "best" do you want? Once you've defined that, you can figure out how to do it programmatically for each post. Offhand I'd say this might wind up
