Could someone please help me figure out this, my first test ever? When I try to run a test based on the one in Agile, p. 145, I get this error: #BEGIN ERROR Loaded suite test/unit/member_test Started F Finished in 0.469879 seconds. 1) Failure: test_create(MemberTest) [test/unit/member_test.rb:8]: <nil> expected to be kind_of? <Member> but was <NilClass>. 1 tests, 1 assertions, 1 failures, 0 errors #END ERROR What does that mean? Any clue to what I''m doing wrong? (Also, despite entering the proper preferences at the list site, I don''t receive messages I post to this list. Does anyone know what that''s about?)
