Hi, class B < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :a validates_numericality_of :some_attribute, :greater_than => 0, :allow_blank=>true
def some_attribute a.numeric_attr * read_attribute(:some_attribute) end ... If I create an instance of my class B in rspec with factory_girl w.out a parent (but not required!) instance of class A, I get the following error: "undefined method `numeric_attr' for nil:NilClass". Why? Is this an apparent idiosyncrasy of using rspec and factory_girl together? Thanks, Lille _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
