Ember.js: Cannot test controller action that sends action to route

[Fryie]

Basically I have a controller action that calls send, and that action should be handled in the route. I have a test for it which used to work, but after upgrading ember-mocha (which probably updated the test helpers), this doesn't work anymore. Here's a JSBin that reproduces the issue.

The issue seems to be that it's trying to look up a router somewhere which is set to undefined. I believe this is somewhere in EmberRouteror so, the compiled output of the function where the error is raised is:

  send: function (name, context) {
      var _router3;

      (_router3 = this.router).trigger.apply(_router3, arguments);
    },

edit:
Here is a version that works. It's the same, but uses different ember and ember-mocha versions.
Narrowing it down further, the problem definitely seems to have appeared between v. 0.7.0 and 0.8.0 of ember-mocha.

Work around for now (using latest version of ember-mocha): http://jsbin.com/fohomo/edit?html,js,output

We need a similar fix as what was done in https://github.com/emberjs/ember.js/pull/11664, but for controllers.

Is this fixed for controllers?

@Fryie @rwjblue is this still an issue, perhaps we should close or create a new reproduction of this, what do you think?

Per our triage policy I'll close this out for now, feel free to reopen if the issue persists on the current release.
