I am testing an update via assert_equal and it does not seem to work.
I have this fixture:
bob1:
id: 1000001
login: bob
glogin: bob-pbC8P9QkocYAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org
session_token: 77a38
Here is my test method:
class Guser < ActiveRecord::Base
def self.update_token(glogin, login, stoken)
u=find(:first, :conditions=>["glogin = ? AND login = ?",
glogin, login])
return nil if u.nil?
if u.session_token != stoken
u.session_token = stoken
u.save
return u
end
#nil
end
end
Here is where I call the method, where I match the ''glogin''
and ''login''
column values and if they match I want to update the session token.
require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper''
class GuserTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase
self.use_instantiated_fixtures = true
fixtures :users
def test_match_login
assert_equal @bob1,
Guser.update_token("bob-pbC8P9QkocYAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org",
"bob",
"77a38")
end
The first time even if there is no record in the database it inserts and
gives a success message:
1 tests, 1 assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors, 0 skips
Then I run it again by changing the method argument like this to update the
sesison token
assert_equal @bob1,
Guser.update_token("bob-pbC8P9QkocYAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org",
"bob", "77a138")
It still gives a success message: 1 tests, 1 assertions, 0 failures, 0
errors, 0 skips
The new value of session token is never updated in the table column from
''77a38'' to ''77a38'' . Can you please tell me
how to update the sesison token
if my glogin and login fields are found to match

To perform an update I have to find if the existing attribute(database column) value is equal to new value that I pass, and then overwrite it if it does not match.

assert_equal uses the == method to compare the two objects, and == on activerecord doesn''t compare attributes: it only compares the id of the object (ie do the compared objects represent the same row in the database) Fred -- That is why I had this issue. I had two fixtures users.yml and gusers.yml. Both had ''bob'' defined with same record ID. Now users.yml was referred by user controller and gusers.yml was referred by gusers controller. However when I did assert_equal using gusers it pulled the record from the users model instead of gusers model. I could not understand that behavior. When I changed the gusers.yml ''bob'' to ''bob1'' it pulled the record from the correct gusers model. This tell me that we have make sure IDs are unique across fixtures from different models. That is confusing each model has to have its own space. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/assert_equal-Test---how-to-test-updates-tp27424657p27430836.html Sent from the RubyOnRails Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

That is confusing each model has to have its own space.if you are using instantiated fixtures, then yes, each fixture needs its own label, but no one does that any more. If you want the bob fixture from users write users(:bob) and for the other one gusers (:bob) Fred> > -- > View this message in context:http://old.nabble.com/assert_equal-Test---how-to-test-updates-tp27424... > Sent from the RubyOnRails Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.-- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
