Ember.js tests fail when using select

Question

I am using Ember 1.8.1 and I updated my code from

{{view Ember.Select content=items}}

to

{{view "select" content=items}}

The problem now is that my tests fail and I get this error:

Error: Assertion Failed: select must be a subclass or an instance of Ember.View, not

Any ideas how to fix this? If I revert the code to the old style the tests pass but I get a deprecation notice.

Answer 1

In your test do this:

import Ember from 'ember';

moduleForComponent('my-foobar', 'MyFoobarComponent', {
  setup: function() {
    this.container.register('view:select', Ember.Select);
  }
}

Doing this type of thing moves us a bit closer to integration tests. There is talk about how to improve the current state of things here: https://github.com/rwjblue/ember-qunit/issues/74
