Hi,
I recently migrated from classic rails testing to Rspec, so I am
pretty new to the framework and still learning. I am getting weird
errors on an ActiveRecord model test, here is the basic class model
definition:
class Size < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :quantities, :dependent => :destroy
validates_presence_of :name
validates_uniqueness_of :name, :case_sensitive => false
end
and this is the faulty spec:
it ''new size should have an error on name'' do
Size.new.should have(1).error_on(:name)
end
the red response is:
''new size should have an error on name'' FAILED
expected 1 error on :name, got 0
if I change the spec to read like this:
Size.new.should have(:no).error_on(:name)
I still get a red response:
''new size should have an error on name'' FAILED
expected 0 error on :name, got 1
Guess the problem is the model class name (Size) as I don''t get such
weird stuff from other classes... can I fix this somehow?
Thanks
Andrea

I also tried "Size.new.should have(:no).errors_on(:name)" and that failed correctly. So something else is amiss in this case. If this persists, please submit a bug report to http://rspec.lighthouseapp.com and include a zipped up app that I can run to see the problem.

First I duplicated the app, tested it and got the same bad results as the original one. Then I started to remove stuff from the duplicated app until I got the Size model specs pass. This happened when I removed the Size controller specs file. Weird. I went back to the original app, cut the code from the Size controller specs file and run the specs.. this time everything passed. I pasted back the content to the Size controller file, saved and again all specs run as they should... I feel really confused :-) Regards Andrea
