Occasionally we need to run scripts (such as from cron) that have access to the rails environment. Since we’ve upgraded to 1.1 (I believe it coincides with that), all of our scripts seem to run as unit tests. An example (obviously useless), which would be store in the script directory: ------BEGIN CODE---------------------------- RAILS\_ENV = ‘development’ require File.dirname( **FILE** ) + ‘/…/config/environment’ score = Score.find(:first) print "Score is: " + score.score.to\_s + “\n” ------END CODE------------------------------ Outputs: ------BEGIN OUTPUT---------------------------- Score is: 183945 Loaded suite script/superlatives Started Finished in 0.00114 seconds. 0 tests, 0 assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors ------END OUTPUT------------------------------ Why is the benchmarking/unit test related output coming up? ---

I have just been noticing this myself. ``` Except for me it happens when I run something with script/console. Even if I just try to run script/console ‘Post.find :all’ It ouputs the same test unit output you show above. I haven’t been able to figure out why yet. I’ll let you know if I do. -Ezra ---

For some reason just having the file\_column plugin in vendor/plugins was making the test unit output happen. I moved the file\_column dir out of the project temporarily and the problem went away. So are you running file\_columnn? 😉 -Ezra ---

The only plugin I’m using for this particular project is tzinfo\_timezone, which I highly doubt would be causing this behavior (but then, I don’t know what’s causing this behavior, so who am I to say).
