Devise methods don't work for websocket controller tests

[mlabarca]

My websocket controller actions call current_user and user_signed_in methods and these work fine except for testing, where I have something of this sort:

let(:request_params) {{auth: {auth_token: journalist.user.authentication_token}, text: 'Test'}}

it 'triggers success when correct parameters are given' do
  expect(create_event('journalist_to_executive_msg', request_params).dispatch).to trigger_success_message
end

While this works in other enviroments, the test fails with this kind of error regarding devise:

expected journalist_to_executive_msg to trigger success message, instead it triggered a failure message with data undefined method `user_signed_in?'

How can i handle this when writing tests for the websockets controller? usually in other tests you have something like:

  before(:each) do
    @request.env["devise.mapping"] = Devise.mappings[:user]
    sign_in user
  end

But that doesn't work here.

Hi, I am facing the same problem during my tests.

It seems that missing methods are not delegated the same way during test and during normal run.
