similar to: Instance variable shortcuts to fixture data are not working?

I''m trying to write a test like the one at the bottom of page 148 in Agile Rails. I''m using rails 1.0 I''ve created the fixture correctly I''m pretty sure because the test database table is being populated per the fixture. I have what I think is a simple unit test: ========= require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' class CaseTest

I have a very simple problem. I can''t seem to access a the fixture by name I have a sites.yml with: simple_site: id: 1 name: demo description: A demo site created_on: 2005-10-25 00:00:00 updated_on: 2005-10-25 00:00:00 And I have a test class as: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' class SiteTest < Test::Unit::TestCase fixtures

OK, I know I''m doing something bone-headed, but I can''t for the life of me figure it out. I''ve read the test fixtures Rdoc about eight dozen times, and it says (to me) that if I have a YAML fixture file, dogs.yml that looks like this: fido: id: 1 breed: Terrier fifi: id: 2 breed: Poodle Then I can include fixtures :dogs in my functional test, and

Hi, I have a fixture in a unit test and I see that the fixture is loaded correctly into the database table, but no instance variables are created. So now I''m stuck. More background: this is my first RoR project and I have just installed the SaltedLoginGenerator and generated its output. Running the unit tests gives an error, so I cut it down to just 1 test:

Hi everybody, I need to find out all terms (field values) from one of the fields from a set of documents returned by search. In other words, I have indexed documents with two fields. I do search on one field and then want to know all other field''s values from fount documents. How? -- Sergei Serdyuk Red Leaf Software LLC web: http://redleafsoft.com -- Posted via

I have a functional test class that uses the "topics" fixture. I verified that the fixture is loaded into the database by doing this: assert_equal 2, Topic.find_all.size So I should have an instance variable called @topics and instance variables for each of the rows in the fixture, in this case, @first and @another. But all those variables are nil inside my test method. Is that

Hi, >From looking at Ruby sources it seems that every update method deletes and reinserts documents. It makes sense if indexed fields are changed but what if it is not the case? It would speed up update a lot indexes did not have to be updated twice for nothing. Any quick way to do it? -- Sergei Serdyuk Red Leaf Software LLC web: http://redleafsoft.com -- Posted via

Hi, I was confused yesterday. I have bunch of tests and one of those was testing ActiveRecord::save and it was all right, but next method failed because table still had newly created record. All documentation suggests that it should not be the case and that data is reloaded from fixtures before every method is run. I am running edge rails and really did not have anything special done about

I''m having a problem configuring fixtures -- for some reason, when I run my unit test, I''m not getting any of the instance variables that are advertised in "Agile Web Development with Rails". I''ve gone through various Wikis and Google, and it seems like I''m the only person with this problem. There is no error message per se, but when I try to use the

I am running into some issues with my functional tests because they need info from almost every single table in the database. I have long laundry lists of fixture names to include on these test files and then I have to troubleshooot bizarre test failures because of a fixture that was not included. So is there a way to simply include all fixtures in a test? Something like: fixtures :all

I''m following Agile Edition 1. On page 148 it suggests using instance variables named after the fixture, for example: assert_equal @version_control_book.id, @product.id When I introduce this type of instance variable into my test, I get the following error: 1) Error: test_not_owner(GroupTest): RuntimeError: Called id for nil, which would mistakenly be 4 -- if you really wanted the

hi all, my first attempt at tests and i''m having trouble accessing the fixture values, if anyone can make it suggestions. i have news_release_test.rb, using new_releases.yml as the fixture file according to the agile book, i should be able to access the fixture properties within my test as such: assert_equal @first_test.id , @news_release.id unfortunately, i try that and get:

Hi, I am on Ferret 0.9.3 and it seems to me that Ferret::Analysis::PerFieldAnalyzerWrapper is not available in ferret_ext. -- Sergei Serdyuk Red Leaf Software LLC web: http://redleafsoft.com -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I want to organize my fixtures just like the namespace of my models. So for example if I have a model Company::Employee I''d like the fixture to be in fixtures/company/employees.yml. However, I can''t figure out how to specify the path of the fixture file. If I do: fixtures :employees in my unit test it can''t find the fixture file. Any suggestions? Thanks, Todd

Hi, I am seeing that doc = index[''mykey''] index.update ''mykey'', doc is about 10 times slower than doc = Document.new doc[''id''] = ''mykey'' index << doc It looks like #update is _much_ slower that #<<. Is it as expected? Sergei. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all, I get an error when testing the "store_controller_test.rb" The troublesome line is in the test below: def test_add_to_cart get :add_to_cart, :id => @version_control_book.id <<< cart = session[:cart] assert_equal @version_control_book.price, cart.total_price assert_redirected_to :action => ''display_cart'' follow_redirect

I have AMOUNT field that ActiveRecord maps to Float. Then I use text_field helper to generate text inputs on forms. Helper takes model object and attribute name and does not provide any formatting abilities, thus 2.40 is shown as 2.4 which is fine with floats but does not look good with currency. I have worked around this issue by adding amount_f attribute to the model that returns formatted

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

I was trying to deal with foreign key issues related to order of fixture loading when I came across this: http://techpolesen.blogspot.com/2007/04/rails-fixture-tips.html This got me looking deeper into rails and I noticed that db:fixtures:load calls Fixtures.create_fixtures once for each fixture file. However, Fixtures.create_fixtures is capable of taking multiple files and also handle the

Hi, I have a big index and wildcard query raises an exception. That is all right. The problem is I can not rescue this exception and it bombs right to user page. Why? I am on Linux.
