I am using Authlogic for user authentecation and create a users.yml for fuctional testing. My unit tests pass, but functional tests fail; since the fixture data wasn''t saved to the test database. I get errors like: StandardError: No fixture with name ... I few weeks back... the users.yml file was working fine and storing user records in the test database. I think the update to Rails 2.3.2 change something or the Authlogic gem update. I''ve tried dropping all my tables in both test and development databases then running... rake db:migrate rake db:fixtures:load ...but the result is a user table with no records. Is there something I need to add to my tests to store the fixture data? Many thanks, -Bill
