available to make the tests more expressive.
Note that the request method is not verified. The different methods are

flash: { notice: 'This is flash message' }
session: { user_id: 1 },
params: { id: 7 },
get :show,

Example sending parameters, session and setting a flash message:
+post+, +patch+, +put+, +delete+, and +head+.
You can also simulate POST, PATCH, PUT, DELETE, and HEAD requests with

- +flash+: A hash of parameters to store in the flash. This may be +nil+.
- +session+: A hash of parameters to store in the session. This may be +nil+.
(application/x-www-form-urlencoded or multipart/form-data).
- +body+: The request body with a string that is appropriately encoded
- +params+: The hash with HTTP parameters that you want to pass. This may be +nil+.
- +action+: The controller action to call.

Simulate a GET request with the given parameters.
def get(action, **args)
  res = process(action, method: "GET", **args)
  cookies.update res.cookies
  res
end

def head(action, **args)

See +get+ for more details.
Simulate a HEAD request with the given parameters and set/volley the response.
def head(action, **args)
  process(action, method: "HEAD", **args)
end

def patch(action, **args)

See +get+ for more details.
Simulate a PATCH request with the given parameters and set/volley the response.
def patch(action, **args)
  process(action, method: "PATCH", **args)
end

def post(action, **args)

See +get+ for more details.
Simulate a POST request with the given parameters and set/volley the response.
def post(action, **args)
  process(action, method: "POST", **args)
end

def process(action, method: "GET", params: {}, session: nil, body: nil, flash: {}, format: nil, xhr: false, as: nil)

respectively which will make tests more expressive.
prefer using #get, #post, #patch, #put, #delete and #head methods
To simulate +GET+, +POST+, +PATCH+, +PUT+, +DELETE+ and +HEAD+ requests

session: { user_id: 1 },
},
user: { name: 'Gaurish Sharma', email: 'user@example.com' }

Example calling +create+ action and sending two params:

to a mime type.
- +as+: Content type. Defaults to +nil+. Must be a symbol that corresponds
- +format+: Request format. Defaults to +nil+. Can be string or symbol.
- +flash+: A hash of parameters to store in the flash. This may be +nil+.
- +session+: A hash of parameters to store in the session. This may be +nil+.
(application/x-www-form-urlencoded or multipart/form-data).

- +method+: Request method used to send the HTTP request. Possible values
- +action+: The controller action to call.
