How to test with RSpec if an email is delivered

Question

I\'d like to test if an email is delivered if I call a controller method with :post. I\'ll use email_spec so I tried this snipped here: http://rubydoc.info/gems/email_spec/1

Answer 1

Try email-spec

describe "POST /signup (#signup)" do
  it "should deliver the signup email" do
    # expect
    expect(UserMailer).to(receive(:deliver_signup).with("email@example.com", "Jimmy Bean"))
    # when
    post :signup, "Email" => "email@example.com", "Name" => "Jimmy Bean"
  end
end
