hi,

I have been working with rails 6887 for a while now, and today i  
decided to try things out with the latest and greatest, but things did  
not go so well.

user\_connections\_path(1) works correctly when i run the app (and in  
the console with app.user\_connections\_path(1)), but test are failing  
(throwing a RoutingError exception) when i run the tests.  
After some investigation, the generate method in action\_controller/  
routing.rb is being called with :action =\> destroy when testing, but  
with :action =\> index in app/console

any pointers would be really appreciated  
thanks
