RSpec-ers: I'm aware this is quite the FAQ. I have probably asked it myself, but I just can't Google up anything but others asking it.
I grabbed the source to Beast, to use as a Rails project uninfluenced by me, or RSpec. Then I installed the CURRENT version of RSpec and rspec_on_rails, and set up a model spec on Post. Here's the spec_helper.rb lines: config.use_transactional_fixtures = true config.use_instantiated_fixtures = false config.fixture_path = RAILS_ROOT + '/test/fixtures/' # borrow existing ones ^ config.global_fixtures = :posts, :topics, :users And here's a Beast test translated into a spec: describe Post do fixtures :forums, :moderatorships, :monitorships, :posts, :topics, :users it 'should require body for post' do @post = topics(:pdi).posts.build @post.valid? assert @post.errors.on(:body) end end And the whiny nil error message hits topics(:pid). Any ideas? -- Phlip _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
