1) Right now this is just testing a successful response. However, since
I've gone and created a Post via FactoryGirl... how can I test the
@post.id equals one of the id's being returned by the get: index json?


describe Api::V1::PostsController do

context 'Post' do
before(:each) do
@post = FactoryGirl.create(:post)
end


context '#index' do
it "should have a successful response on get index" do
get :index, format: :json
response.should be_success
end
end

EDIT:

2) How can I use "post :create" when my route is nested.

For example... this works great as an rspec controller post :create with
a top level resource, such as post

it "should get a success response on post create" do
post :create, params
response.should be_success
end

however, for a nested resource like 'comment' which is nested under
post... the above would throw the following...

Failure/Error: post :create, params
ActionController::UrlGenerationError:
No route matches

and if I tried

it "should get a success response on post create" do
post :create, post_id: @post.id, params #@post is defined and
created above
response.should be_success
end

I get this odd error...

syntax error, unexpected '\n', expecting => (SyntaxError)
