HI all If I have two functional tests that test the same controller, I get fixture errors. Is this right? here is one require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' require ''summary_controller'' # Re-raise errors caught by the controller. class SummaryController; def rescue_action(e) raise e end; end class SummaryControllerTest < Test::Unit::TestCase all_fixtures and here is the other require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' require ''summary_controller'' # Re-raise errors caught by the controller. class SummaryController; def rescue_action(e) raise e end; end class SummaryControllerTest < Test::Unit::TestCase fixtures :users, :decisions, :roles Here is the error it produces... 1) Error: test_choose_chart(SummaryControllerTest): NoMethodError: You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! You might have expected an instance of Array. The error occurred while evaluating nil.[] c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/active_record/fixture s.rb:498:in `users'' ./test/functional/summary_controller_test.rb:42:in `test_choose_chart'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mocha-0.5.5/lib/mocha/test_case_adapter.rb:19 :in `__send__'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mocha-0.5.5/lib/mocha/test_case_adapter.rb:19 :in `run'' on this line: admin = users(:admin) Have any of you run into a similar problem before? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I haven''t looked into it in any depth, but I wonder if your problem could be that your test classes have exactly the same name. So when the second file is loaded, you will be modifying the first test class. -- James. http://blog.floehopper.org http://tumble.floehopper.org --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Apprently you cannot do that in tests apparently, have the same controller being tested. I dunno why but deleting one fixed the problem.

I suspect you *can* have two test cases testing the same controller as long as the class names of the two *TestCases* are different. class SummaryControllerOneTest < Test::Unit::TestCase class SummaryControllerAnotherTest < Test::Unit::TestCase -- James. http://blog.floehopper.org http://tumble.floehopper.org --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
