The SO-thread Routing error when updating to Rails 3.2.6 or Rspec 2.11.0 explains the problem pretty well:

With journey >= 1.0.4 (Rails 3.2.11), all routing-related unit tests fail, while the app itself continues to function just fine.

Using Rails 3.2.6 and locking journey to 1.0.3 is a workaround that has become unacceptable.

As an example, here is one of the simplest tests that fail:

routes.rb

ProjRails::Application.routes.draw do

    devise_for :users, :controllers => {:registrations => "users/registrations"}

    resources :users do
      collection do
        get 'current' => 'users#redirect', :as => :current
      end
    end

    # ...

  end
end

users_controller_test.rb

require 'test_helper'

class UsersControllerTest < ActionController::TestCase
  setup do
    @user = FactoryGirl.create(:user)
    @current_user = FactoryGirl.create(:user)
    sign_in @current_user
  end

  # ...

  test "should get new" do
    get :new                    # this is line 25
    assert_response :success
  end

  # ...

end

stacktrace

  8) Error:
test_should_get_new(UsersControllerTest):

There seem to be quite some related questions on SO – all either unresolved or without a specific solution.

Anyone knows how to resolve this issue?

    The section “Testing” of the rails-translate-routes README (https://github.com/francesc/rails-translate-routes#testing) explains that the locale has to be added as a parameter to the action call.

    get :new

    has to be changed to something like this:

    get :new, locale: 'en'

    As outlined in the readme, a monkey patch exists to avoid the necessity of doing so.

    One question still remains: Why did it work without that addition in Rails 3.2.6 / Journey 1.0.3?
