Hi Elza

Am I right thinking your intent here is the same as:

   def edit
     @user = if is_admin?
         User.find(get_param(:id, :integer))
       else
         current_user
       end
   end

If so, a hit to /users/5 would edit user 5 if you were an admin user,  
but would always edit the logged in user otherwise.  Since you have

> should_require_login :get, :edit

as part of the spec, that'd mean you could never be in the latter  
situation.

Sorry if this is missing the point (I've had a long day, may have  
misread your code...), but I thought I'd better establish your intent  
before posting an irrelevant reply about the expectation error.
