Rails - Aug 2006 - Failing test with assert_redirected_to

I''m having a strange problem with an assert_redirected_to in my 
controller test which hopefully someone can point out my failings with! 
;)

Controller method -
def new
  if request.post?
    #Not important here.
  else
    flash[:notice] = ''Please join a tree from this page.''
    redirect_to :controller => ''trees'', :action =>
''list''
  end
end

And the failing test and result -

def test_new_using_get
  get ''new''
  assert_response :redirect
  assert_redirected_to :controller => ''trees'', :action
=> ''list''
end

Test::Unit::AssertionFailedError: response is not a redirection to all 
of the options supplied (redirection is <{:action=>"list", 
:controller=>"trees"}>), difference: <{}>

I''m sure I''m missing something obvious but I haven''t
managed to track it
down and Googling didn''t turn up anything of use.  Surely an empty 
difference is no difference?

Thanks in advance,

Ross

I hope u should have given validation in the models. I think that might 
be the problem!! Please check that!!

If a get request for ''new'' is made to the controller it
doesn''t even
create an empty model so I don''t think it can be a validation issue.
