Compare with:

get(action, **args)

Simulate a GET request with the given parameters.

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

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

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

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