Rails3's default unit tests is not working

Rails
1

When I try to execute default unit tests which have been created with my
models, I get following errors.

Thanks in advance.

CASE 1)
My default unit test file content;

require ‘test_helper’
class UserTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase

Replace this with your real tests.

test “the truth” do
assert true
end
end

Commands that I executed;

rake db:migrate
rake db:test:load
rake test:units --trace

CASE 2)
Then when I use following unit test file it is working, but when I get
an failure with test I get “rake aborted!” error.

My own unit test content;

require ‘test_helper’
class UserTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase

Replace this with your real tests.

def test
assert false
end
end

My default fixture file content;

This model initially had no columns defined. If you add columns to

the

model remove the ‘{}’ from the fixture names and add the columns

immediately

below each fixture, per the syntax in the comments below

one: {}

column: value

two: {}
