Rails

Hi

Below is my functional test code

def test_should_create_county
assert_difference(‘County.count’) do
post :create, :county =>
{:name=>“myname”,:description=>“mydesc”,:region_id=>“3” }
end
assert_redirected_to county_path(assigns(:county))
end

And error message i got is

  1. Failure:
    test_should_create_county(CountiesControllerTest)
    [/test/functional/counties_controller_test.rb:16]:
    “County.count” didn’t change by 1.
    <3> expected but was
    <2>.

Please help

Hi
Can’t say what happens only based on this. Anyway please change
above to

def test_should_create_county
County.destroy_all
assert_difference(‘County.count’) do
post :create, :county =>
{:name=>“myname”,:description=>“mydesc”,:region_id=>“3” }
end
assert_redirected_to county_path(assigns(:county))
end

Hi Sijo

I think you are tired helping me

When i run scaffolding and run functional testing also it provides error
message
Is there any initial setup for functional testing

I am not able to run the basic functional testing that scaffolding
generates

Yes as Fred said you need that and suppose if you are using a session
varible person_id it can be done like for example in test_helper just
write a def like

def login_as(person)
@request.session[:person_id] = person ? person.id : nil
end

And from your test call this by passing administrator object as
variable

If your controller normally requires users to be logged in then you
will need to make it appear that the test requests are coming from a
logged in user.

That destroy should not matter. (And assert_latest is much more accurate
&
useful than assert_difference here.)

 assert_difference('County.count') do
   post :create, :county =>

{:name=>“myname”,:description=>“mydesc”,:region_id=>“3” }
end
assert_redirected_to county_path(assigns(:county))
end

Most likely you fail validation. If your error flashes to the page, you
can put
assert_match /something/, flash[:warning], or the equivalent, above the
assert_redirect.

Otherwise, change your save to save! and see if you get a crash message.
