-# Testing
-
-Authorization is one of the crucial parts of your application. Hence, it should be thoroughly tested (that is the place where 100% coverage makes sense).
-
-When you use policies for authorization, it is possible to split testing into two parts:
-- Test the policy class itself
-- Test that **the required authorization is performed** within your authorization layer (controller, channel, etc.)
-- Test that **the required scoping has been applied**.
-
-## Testing policies
-
-You can test policies as plain-old Ruby classes, no special tooling is required.
-
-Consider an RSpec example:
-
-```ruby
-describe PostPolicy do
-  let(:user) { build_stubbed(:user) }
-  let(:post) { build_stubbed(:post) }
-
-  let(:policy) { described_class.new(post, user: user) }
-
-  describe "#update?" do
-    subject { policy.apply(:update?) }
-
-    it "returns false when the user is not admin nor author" do
-      is_expected.to eq false
-    end
-
-    context "when the user is admin" do
-      let(:user) { build_stubbed(:user, :admin) }
-
-      it { is_expected.to eq true }
-    end
-
-    context "when the user is an author" do
-      let(:post) { build_stubbed(:post, user: user) }
-
-      it { is_expected.to eq true }
-    end
-  end
-end
-```
-
-### RSpec DSL
-
-We also provide a simple RSpec DSL which aims to reduce the boilerplate when writing
-policies specs.
-
-Example:
-
-```ruby
-# Add this to your spec_helper.rb / rails_helper.rb
-require "action_policy/rspec/dsl"
-
-describe PostPolicy do
-  let(:user) { build_stubbed :user }
-  # `record` must be defined – it is the authorization target
-  let(:record) { build_stubbed :post, draft: false }
-
-  # `context` is the authorization context
-  let(:context) { {user: user} }
-
-  # `describe_rule` is a combination of
-  # `describe` and `subject { ... }` (returns the result of
-  # applying the rule to the record)
-  describe_rule :show? do
-    # `succeed` is `context` + `specify`, which checks
-    # that the result of application is successful
-    succeed "when post is published"
-
-    # `succeed` is `context` + `specify`, which checks
-    # that the result of application wasn't successful
-    failed "when post is draft" do
-      before { post.draft = false }
-
-      succeed "when user is a manager" do
-        before { user.role = "manager" }
-      end
-    end
-  end
-end
-```
-
-If test failed the exception message includes the result and [failure reasons](reasons) (if any):
-
-```
-1) PostPolicy#show? when post is draft
-Failure/Error:  ...
-
-Expected to fail but succeed:
-<PostPolicy#show?: true (reasons: ...)>
-```
-
-If you have [debugging utils](debugging) installed the message also includes the _annotated_
-source code of the policy rule:
-
-```
-1) UserPolicy#manage? when post is draft
-Failure/Error:  ...
-
-Expected to fail but succeed:
-<PostPolicy#show?: true (reasons: ...)>
-↳ user.admin? #=> true
-OR
-!record.draft? #=> false
-```
-
-**NOTE:** DSL for focusing or skipping examples and groups is also available (e.g. `xdescribe_rule`, `fsucceed`, etc.).
-
-**NOTE:** the DSL is included only to example with the tag `type: :policy` or in the `spec/policies` folder. If you want to add this DSL to other examples, add `include ActionPolicy::RSpec::PolicyExampleGroup`.
-
-### Testing scopes
-
-There is no single rule on how to test scopes, 'cause it dependes on the _nature_ of the scope.
-
-Here's an example of RSpec tests for Active Record scoping rules:
-
-```ruby
-describe PostPolicy do
-  describe "relation scope" do
-    let(:user) { build_stubbed :user }
-    let(:context) { {user: user} }
-
-    # Feel free to replace with `before_all` from `test-prof`:
-    # https://test-prof.evilmartians.io/#/before_all
-    before do
-      create(:post, name: "A")
-      create(:post, name: "B", draft: true)
-    end
-
-    let(:target) do
-      # We want to make sure that only the records created
-      # for this test are affected, and they have a deterministic order
-      Post.where(name: %w[A B]).order(name: :asc)
-    end
-
-    subject { policy.apply_scope(target, type: :active_record_relation).pluck(:name) }
-
-    context "as user" do
-      it { is_expected.to eq(%w[A]) }
-    end
-
-    context "as manager" do
-      before { user.update!(role: :manager) }
-
-      it { is_expected.to eq(%w[A B]) }
-    end
-
-    context "as banned user" do
-      before { user.update!(banned: true) }
-
-      it { is_expected.to be_empty }
-    end
-  end
-end
-```
-
-## Testing authorization
-
-To test the act of authorization you have to make sure that the `authorize!` method is called with the appropriate arguments.
-
-Action Policy provides tools for such kind of testing for Minitest and RSpec.
-
-### Minitest
-
-Include `ActionPolicy::TestHelper` to your test class and you'll be able to use
-`assert_authorized_to` assertion:
-
-```ruby
-# in your controller
-class PostsController < ApplicationController
-  def update
-    @post = Post.find(params[:id])
-    authorize! @post
-    if @post.update(post_params)
-      redirect_to @post
-    else
-      render :edit
-    end
-  end
-end
-
-# in your test
-require "action_policy/test_helper"
-
-class PostsControllerTest < ActionDispatch::IntegrationTest
-  include ActionPolicy::TestHelper
-
-  test "update is authorized" do
-    sign_in users(:john)
-
-    post = posts(:example)
-
-    assert_authorized_to(:update?, post, with: PostPolicy) do
-      patch :update, id: post.id, name: "Bob"
-    end
-  end
-end
-```
-
-You can omit the policy (then it would be inferred from the target):
-
-```ruby
-assert_authorized_to(:update?, post) do
-  patch :update, id: post.id, name: "Bob"
-end
-```
-
-### RSpec
-
-Add the following to your `rails_helper.rb` (or `spec_helper.rb`):
-
-```ruby
-require "action_policy/rspec"
-```
-
-Now you can use `be_authorized_to` matcher:
-
-```ruby
-describe PostsController do
-  subject { patch :update, id: post.id, params: params }
-
-  it "is authorized" do
-    expect { subject }.to be_authorized_to(:update?, post)
-      .with(PostPolicy)
-  end
-end
-```
-
-If you omit `.with(PostPolicy)` then the inferred policy for the target (`post`) would be used.
-
-RSpec composed matchers are available as target:
-
-```ruby
-expect { subject }.to be_authorized_to(:show?, an_instance_of(Post))
-```
-
-## Testing scoping
-
-Action Policy provides a way to test that a correct scoping has been applied during the code execution.
-
-For example, you can test that in your `#index` action the correct scoping is used:
-
-```ruby
-class UsersController < ApplicationController
-  def index
-    @user = authorized(User.all)
-  end
-end
-```
-
-### Minitest
-
-Include `ActionPolicy::TestHelper` to your test class and you'll be able to use
-`assert_have_authorized_scope` assertion:
-
-```ruby
-# in your test
-require "action_policy/test_helper"
-
-class UsersControllerTest < ActionDispatch::IntegrationTest
-  include ActionPolicy::TestHelper
-
-  test "index has authorized scope" do
-    sign_in users(:john)
-
-    assert_have_authorized_scope(type: :active_record_relation, with: UserPolicy) do
-      get :index
-    end
-  end
-end
-```
-
-You can also specify `as` and `scope_options` options.
-
-**NOTE:** both `type` and `with` params are required.
-
-It's not possible to test that a scoped has been applied to a particular _target_ but we provide
-a way to perform additional assertions against the matching target (if the assertion didn't fail):
-
-```ruby
-test "index has authorized scope" do
-  sign_in users(:john)
-
-  assert_have_authorized_scope(type: :active_record_relation, with: UserPolicy) do
-    get :index
-  end.with_target do |target|
-    # target is a object passed to `authorized` call
-    assert_equal User.all, target
-  end
-end
-```
-
-### RSpec
-
-Add the following to your `rails_helper.rb` (or `spec_helper.rb`):
-
-```ruby
-require "action_policy/rspec"
-```
-
-Now you can use `have_authorized_scope` matcher:
-
-```ruby
-describe UsersController do
-  subject { get :index }
-
-  it "has authorized scope" do
-    expect { subject }.to have_authorized_scope(:active_record_relation)
-      .with(PostPolicy)
-  end
-end
-```
-
-You can also add `.as(:named_scope)` and `with_scope_options(options_hash)` options.
-
-RSpec composed matchers are available as scope options:
-
-```ruby
-expect { subject }.to have_authorized_scope(:scope)
-  .with_scope_options(matching(with_deleted: a_falsey_value))
-```
-
-You can use the `with_target` modifier to run additional expectations against the matching target (if the matcher didn't fail):
-
-```ruby
-expect { subject }.to have_authorized_scope(:scope)
-  .with_scope_options(matching(with_deleted: a_falsey_value))
-  .with_target { |target|
-    expect(target).to eq(User.all)
-  }
-```

-# Writing Policies
-
-Policy class contains predicate methods (_rules_) which are used to authorize activities.
-
-A Policy is instantiated with the target `record` (authorization object) and the [authorization context](authorization_context.md) (by default equals to `user`):
-
-```ruby
-class PostPolicy < ActionPolicy::Base
-  def index?
-    # allow everyone to perform "index" activity on posts
-    true
-  end
-
-  def update?
-    # here we can access our context and record
-    user.admin? || (user.id == record.user_id)
-  end
-end
-```
-
-## Initializing policies
-
-**NOTE**: it is not recommended to manually initialize policy objects and use them directly (one exclusion–[tests](testing.md)). Use [`authorize!` / `allowed_to?` methods](./behaviour.md#authorize) instead.
-
-To initialize policy object, you should specify target record and context:
-
-```ruby
-policy = PostPolicy.new(post, user: user)
-
-# simply call rule method
-policy.update?
-```
-
-You can omit the first argument (in that case `record` would be `nil`).
-
-Instead of calling rules directly, it is better to call the `apply` method (which wraps rule method with some useful functionality, such as [caching](caching.md), [pre-checks](pre_checks.md), and [failure reasons tracking](reasons.md)):
-
-```ruby
-policy.apply(:update?)
-```
-
-## Calling other policies
-
-Sometimes it is useful to call other resources policies from within a policy. Action Policy provides the `allowed_to?` method as a part of `ActionPolicy::Base`:
-
-```ruby
-class CommentPolicy < ApplicationPolicy
-  def update?
-    user.admin? || (user.id == record.id) ||
-      allowed_to?(:update?, record.post)
-  end
-end
-```
-
-You can also specify all the usual options (such as `with`).
-
-There is also a `check?` method which is just an "alias"\* for `allowed_to?` added for better readability:
-
-```ruby
-class PostPolicy < ApplicationPolicy
-  def show?
-    user.admin? || check?(:publicly_visible?)
-  end
-
-  def publicly_visible?
-    # ...
-  end
-end
-```
-
-\* It's not a Ruby _alias_ but a wrapper; we can't use `alias` or `alias_method`, 'cause `allowed_to?` could be extended by some extensions.
-
-## Identifiers
-
-Each policy class has an `identifier`, which is by default just an underscored class name:
-
-```ruby
-class CommentPolicy < ApplicationPolicy
-end
-
-CommentPolicy.identifier #=> :comment
-```
-
-For namespaced policies it has a form of:
-
-```ruby
-module ActiveAdmin
-  class UserPolicy < ApplicationPolicy
-  end
-end
-
-ActiveAdmin::UserPolicy.identifier # => :"active_admin/user"
-```
-
-You can specify your own identifier:
-
-```ruby
-module MyVeryLong
-  class LongLongNamePolicy < ApplicationPolicy
-    self.identifier = :long_name
-  end
-end
-
-MyVeryLong::LongLongNamePolicy.identifier #=> :long_name
-```
-
-Identifiers are required for some modules, such as [failure reasons tracking](reasons.md) and [i18n](i18n.md).
