Ticket #11449 (new defect)

Response is nil after follow_redirect! in integration test.

Reported by: ijcd Assigned to: core
Priority: normal Milestone: 2.x
Component: ActionPack Version: edge
Severity: normal Keywords: integration test follow_redirect make_resourceful
Cc: ian@ianduggan.net

Description

This happens for 2.0.2 and edge. Did not test others.

follow_redirect! is returning a response of nil rather than the expected redirect headers. Stepping through the code, it seems that last_instantiation (integration.rb) is not set properly somewhere along the way.

In the test shown here, it seems to be triggered by something that make_resourceful is doing, but I have not dug into the details there.

The attached patches demonstrate the problem, and include a fix.

All tests pass w/ the fix, and it seems reasonable, but I don't fully grok why last_instantiation would be using = instead of = in the first place.

Wiki formatting ate my syntax. It should read:

"but I don't fully grok why last_instantiation would be using ||= instead of = in the first place"

A diagnosis of what in make_resourceful is causing the issue is here:

http://groups.google.com/group/make_resourceful/browse_thread/thread/588bc6f0a6d1bc65?hl=en

Relevant portion: 

in integrtion.rb, the call to Controller#new is aliased to
#new_with_capture. new_with_capture stores the controller away and the
integration test later retrieve it, to check the response.

In m_r, builder, on line 85, new is called on the controller to
determine the plurality:

   available_actions = controller.new.plural? ? ACTIONS :
SINGULAR_ACTIONS

Now the integration tests store an empty controller, and
subsequentely, the integration tests fail.
