end

class User < ActiveRecord::Base

  describe 'associations' do
     it "belongs_to user" do
        should belongs_to(:user)
     end

You can test this association easily using belong_to matcher of the gem shoulda:

describe Album do
  it { should belong_to(:user) }
end

See this for an example.
