This is a great article. Would love to know a little more about act() and what you did in the final test - where you awaited the promise `await act(() => promise);`.

Craigslist has been doing this since the beginning I think. It's a a good site for this UI, people don't come back to the site everyday, but when they do they need to access their account. A little extra time was worth it and made the onboarding process simpler. It was only later they added passwords.

Remember - Monty is trying to pick the car, the only way he can't do that is if the car is already picked - a 1/n chance. His odds are 1-1/n, or 2/3 with three doors.

Just a couple tips - looking through the code of the gem was helpful to see how it worked, what helper methods were added, and what controllers/actions were in there. And, Rake Routes gives a good overview of the urls and restful resources. That's where I saw the url for oauth_callback and realized I shouldn't have changed it.

The Gem code can be found by doing a $gem list twitter-auth -d to find the directory of the gem. Open it in your editor from there.

I got this working and everything is good now - First, don't change the default url for the callback - that needs to be '/oauth_callback' in the Twitter App Registration settings to match twitter-auth's expectations. If you change it, update routes to have the new url send you to {:action=>"oauth_callback", :controller=>"sessions"}.

The other symptom I was seeing was not related. When I landed on twitter at twtter.com/oauth/authenticate?.. I was not logged in, but was when I landed at twitter.com/oauth/authorize?...

I'm not seeing this go so smoothly. One big issue - when the round trip returns, I'm not signed in. Another, smaller, but maybe related - when I get to twitter (at /oath/authenticate?...) I am not logged in. If I try it from another consumer app on the web, it works fine. Makes me think there's something odd with my configuration, but my setup is on a new rails stack.
