Hello folks, this is the first time I''ve written to this forum. If
there''s already a topic on this, forgive me but the search
isn''t working
right now.
I seem to have a problem validating confirmation of a password. The
first two snippets are some model code and some test code that work just
fine:
----------------------------
class Challenge < ActiveRecord::Base
...
validates_confirmation_of :title
...
----------------------------
class ChallengeTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
...
def test_create
c = Challenge.new
assert !c.save
c.title = c.title_confirmation = "some random title"
c.body = "some body text"
assert c.save
end
----------------------------
this yields:
$ ruby test/unit/challenge_test.rb
Loaded suite test/unit/challenge_test
Started
..
Finished in 0.521554 seconds.
2 tests, 3 assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors
----------------------------
the second snippet seems identical, but it yields a failed assertion:
----------------------------
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
...
validates_confirmation_of :password
...
________________________________
class UserTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
...
def test_test
u = User.new( :username => "newbob",
:password => "newpassword",
:email => "newbob@mcbob.com" )
u.password_confirmation = "newpassword"
assert u.save #(this is line 17)
end
----------------------------
this yields:
$ ruby test/unit/user_test.rb
Loaded suite test/unit/user_test
Started
F.
Finished in 0.343036 seconds.
1) Failure:
test_test(UserTest) [test/unit/user_test.rb:17]:
<false> is not true.
2 tests, 2 assertions, 1 failures, 0 errors
----------------------------
Can anyone see an error i can''t? For the life of me, I can''t
seem to
figure out why the two would behave any differently. I can provide more
(surrounding) code if necessary, but it was already getting pretty long
. . .
Thanks

For the record, I ran into this while trying to follow the tutorial at
