How do I reference my service class from rspec?

Viewed 2928

I'm using Rails 5 and trying to test a service using rspec. I created my "spec" directory per the instructions and placed my test file in there, which is

require 'app/services/crypto_currency_service.rb'

describe CryptoCurrencyService do

  describe ".sell" do

    it "basic_sell" do
      last_buy_price = 3000
      last_transaction = MoneyMakerTransaction.new({
        :transaction_type => "buy",
        :amount_in_usd => "100",
        :btc_price_in_usd => "#{last_buy_price}"
      })
      @client = Coinbase::Wallet::Client.new(api_key: ENV['COINBASE_KEY'], api_secret: ENV['COINBASE_SECRET'])
      sell_price = 4000
      assert sell_price > last_buy_price * (1 + MoneyMakerThreshhold.find_buy.pct_change)

      allow(@client).to receive(:sell_price).and_return({"base"=>"BTC", "currency"=>"USD", "amount"=>"#{sell_price}"})

      svc = CryptoCurrencyService.new
      svc.sell(last_transaction)
      last_transaction = MoneyMakerTransaction.find_latest_record
      assert last_transaction.transaction_type, "sell"
    end

  end

end

but when I try and run the test, I get this error complaining about not being able to find my file ...

localhost:myapp davea$ bundle exec rspec

An error occurred while loading ./spec/crypto_currency_service_spec.rb.
Failure/Error: require 'app/services/crypto_currency_service.rb'

localhost:myapp davea$ ls app/services/crypto_currency_service.rb
app/services/crypto_currency_service.rb

What's the proper way to reference my service file from my rspec class?

Edit: contents of service, as requsted ...

require 'coinbase/wallet'

class CryptoCurrencyService


  def sell(last_transaction)
    ret = false
    client = Coinbase::Wallet::Client.new(api_key: ENV['COINBASE_KEY'], api_secret: ENV['COINBASE_SECRET'])
    sell_price = client.sell_price(currency: 'USD').amount
    puts "buy: #{last_transaction.btc_price_in_usd} sellprice: #{sell_price} last:#{last_transaction.btc_price_in_usd}"
    if sell_price > last_transaction.btc_price_in_usd * (1 + MoneyMakerThreshhold.find_buy.pct_change).to_f
      payment_method = client.payment_methods()[0]
      account = client.primary_account
      amount_of_bitcoin = last_transaction.amount_in_usd / last_transaction.btc_price_in_usd
      result = account.sell(amount: amount_of_bitcoin, currency: "BTC", payment_method: payment_method.id)
      if result.status.eql?("Completed")
        transaction = MoneyMakerTransacction.new({:transaction_type => "sell", :amount_in_usd => result.total.amount, :btc_price_in_usd => sell_price})
        transaction.save
        ret = true
      end
    end
    ret
  end


end

Edit: here's the result of applying the answer given

localhost:myapp davea$ bundle exec rspec

An error occurred while loading ./spec/services/crypto_currency_service_spec.rb.

You shouldn't need to require that file. So:

Remove the line require 'app/services/crypto_currency_service.rb'

Move ./spec/crypto_currency_service_spec.rb to ./spec/services/crypto_currency_service_spec.rb.

Then put this in the first line of your spec file:

require 'rails_helper'

Furthermore, double check all your file names, as they should be:

./app/services/crypto_currency_service.rb

./spec/services/crypto_currency_service_spec.rb

Edit:

if you are using rails 5 + rspec 3+, you should have a file: yourapp/spec/rails_helper.rb

if you are on a older version of rspec, then you should have only: yourapp/spec/spec_helper.rb, if the later is the case, then do require 'spec_helper.rb' in your spec file.

If you don't have any of these files, then rspec was never initialized in your project, make sure you have the 'rspec-rails' gem in your Gemfile and then run bundle and rspec --init on your project folder.
