Hi all,
I''ve just started doing functional testing in Rails. I want to test my
controller whether it displays the page correctly or not. This is the
test code that I have written:
=============================== fixtures :all
def test_index
get(:index, {''code'' => ''PR'',
''project_id'' => ''9999''})
end
But when I ran this test I encounter this error:
1) Error:
test_index(ReleasesControllerTest):
NoMethodError: undefined method `releases'' for nil:NilClass
vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/whiny_nil.rb:52:in
`method_missing''
app/controllers/releases_controller.rb:46:in `index''
And this is how my controller looks like:
@project = Project.find_by_code(params[:code])
@releases = @project.releases
==============================
Why do I get this error?
* Shouldn''t the releases be a instance variable instead of method?
* Shouldn''t the instace be created because I have passed the parameter?
Did I miss anything here? Because I got this from reading the rails
guide. Thanks for the assistance.
Kind regards,

Have you properly set up your fixtures or otherwise seeded your test database? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Do you have your model relationships setup properly? (project has_many releases and releases belongs_to project?)

Hi all, Thanks for the help and assistance. I''m not sure why. But when I configured whiny_nils to false, the tests runs.
