I don't know exactly how you're using the code, but validates_presence_of :user_id seems redundant. If you've setup a relationship from Group to User then Active Record will be enforcing that validation for you. Just a thought ...
Other than that you would probably do (without seeing any of your code): group = mock_model(Group, :to_param => 1) user = mock_model(User, :to_param => 1) group.stub!(:user).and_return(user) On Mon, Feb 11, 2008 at 8:21 AM, Edvard Majakari <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Feb 11, 2008 1:43 PM, Wes Shaddix <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I've got a "group" model that has a user_id attribute and a > > validates_existence_of :user and validates_presence_of :user_id > > validations.
