Testing for View Exceptions in Rails with Rspec

How do I write a test that would iterate through all the instances of User#Show (for each User) to see if a exception is thrown?

I understand how to write a test to check if the object has certain data in it. But don`t know how to iterate for each while making sure that it wouldn't throw a 500 error etc.

I might just have temp. brain freeze, but please help me out.

Any helps or guidelines are appreciated.

You can do this. This assumes you have already created and saved users to your database.

describe UsersController do
  User.each do |user|
    it "doesn't return a 500 error for user #{user.name}" do
      get :show, :id => user.id
      assert_response(:success)
    end
  end
end

Your Ruby code doesn't just have to be inside of an it so you can use that to loop and then perform its later on.
