similar to: NoMethodError in Unit Test - Rails Newcomer

Hi! Yesterday I started to write my unit tests for the fist time using rails. I''m using this method: http://blog.codahale.com/2005/12/23/a-rails-howto-simplify-your-unit-tests/ My customer_test.rb looks like this: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' class CustomerTest < Test::Unit::TestCase fixtures :customers # Replace this with your real

Im trying to install salted and get errors when running the rake test... /usr/bin/ruby1.8 -Ilib:test "/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.0/lib/rake/rake_test_loader .rb" "test/unit/localization_test.rb" "test/unit/user_test.rb" Loaded suite /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.0/lib/rake/rake_test_loader Started ........F....E Finished in 0.108794 seconds. 1)

2 quick questions regarding authentication ... 1) the flash[:notice] on successful login looks completely wrong to me. How should it be done? def index if request.post? @user = User.new(params[:user]) authentic_user = @user.attempt_login if authentic_user session[:user_id] = authentic_user.id flash[:notice] = ''Login successful! Welcome

I am having a problem finding the best way to make a "before_save :encrypt_password" conditional. I have to at times update user model attributes but each time I do this the password is reencrypted because of the above. I need to differentiate between when the user is first logging in and the password does need to be encrypted, and when they are already logged in and the

Hi guys, I am using acts_as_ferret to do full text search on my models and I am having problem on three-letter word searches. I am going to use an example to explain my problem. Here it is: There is a table called users and it has login, first_name, last_name columns. There are three rows inside it. login first_name last_name bob bob henry longbob nil

hi all, i''m learning rspec and i can''t figure out how to test if a callback is executed in a model. my model code is: class User < ActiveRecord::Base before_save :encrypt_password ... def encrypt(password) self.class.encrypt(password, salt) end thanks a lot, cs. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m using Restful Authentication, and the code to create a user is pretty straight forward - there is a before_save action and a before_create action: before_save :encrypt_password before_create :make_activation_code But for some reason when I try to create a user programmatically in the controller like this: User.new(:email =>

I have a user model and a status model. Each user has a specific status (accepted, rejected, declined, etc). I have a form that allows the adminstrator to change certain options for a user, including their status. I''m using a drop down menu populated with the different status values, and a default option that says "Choose a new status" with a value of "". I want to

Hello, I''ve added the field ''admin'' to my users database. When I did this, my unit tests broke with an error similar to this one for every test: ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: Mysql::Error: Unknown column ''role'' in ''field list'': INSERT INTO users (`salt`, `hashed_password`, `role`, `id`, `login`, `email`) VALUES (1000,

I have a site with an acts_as_authenticated based login which has started throwing up some strange errors. Until a few days ago everything worked fine but all of a sudden ''RecordNotSaved'' errors are popping up in my logs. When I check the database, it looks like the record _is_ saved but I think users get an error so I''m starting to see a lot of double/triple entries

hello, i am writing a simple user login system. when registering a user account, i have two field: password password_confirmation which are validated using validates_presence_of validates_confirmation_of and these are then used to generate a password hash which is stored in my database when i want to update the record (without changing the password and entering new values for password and

I''m having a problems mocking successive return values. I don''t know if I''m doing something wrong or if this is a limitation of rspec mocks. Any ideas of what I may be doing wrong? I''m trying to test the generate_quote_number method. It generates a quote number, looks to see if it is in the db already. If it is, it calls itself to try again. I want

I upgraded a working app from rails 2.1 to 2.3.2. Now when I run rake test:units I get this error: /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ activesupport-2.3.2/lib/active_support/test_case.rb:17: superclass mismatch for class TestCase (TypeError) I generated a new test app and all tests run OK. For the upgrade I ran rake:update and renamed the class in test_helper to ActiveSupport::TestCase. Also renamed

Hi there, I''m using the wonderful file_column and have struck an issue that someone might have seen before. My images already sit on the server. So, instead of passing a multipart message I''m sending a file object. Something like... f = File.new("public/gallery_images/builder.png") p = Product.find_first p.image = f p.save On the save I recieve an error which

I blogged about some of the problems with aaf in production (http://www.jroller.com/BrightCandle) yesterday but inspired by the poitive response I thought I would share the perceived problems and discuss some of the potential solutions to help newcomers and make aaf work as if by magic just like Rails does. All of these problems boil down to one simple problem, running acts as ferret in a

I''m in the process of creating a sign up form for an online application. The form collects account info, company info, and then info for an administrative user. The method looks like this: def create @account = Account.create!(params[:account]) @company = @account.companies.create!(params[:company]) @user = @company.users.create!(params[:user]) end However, this inevitably fails

I found the post about needing to install acts_as_attachement_1_1_6 if you are not on edge rails. But I am having trouble getting db_system storage to work. As far as I can tell in from the database, things are working, but I don''t see how my model table hooks up with the db_files table so I am having trouble altering the image_tag from the tutorial

People, I''m looking at the migrate example on p 74 of the rails2.pdf It''s a simple example of using a migration to add a column to the products table. Here is a copy of the migration file named 002_add_price.rb after I generated and then edited it: class AddPrice < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up add_column :products, :price, :decimal, :precision => 8, :scale

I''m getting some very weird results when testing my system. If I run my unit tests using => ruby \test\unit\<filename.rb> each of the tests pass. If I run => rake test_units I get several failures, and they all have to deal with the same issue. For instance I''m getting => ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: RuntimeError: ERROR C42P01 Mrelation
