Texting confusion

Rails
1

Hi, I’m trying to learn how to test my apps as I build them. I’ve been
following the tutorials at nullislove.com but I they don’t seem to be
acting as described.

I’ve tried to run the default generated unit tests and it comes up with
the following error.

test_truth(UserTest):
ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: SQLite3::SQLException: table items has
no column

I don’t understand why it is coming up with anything about the items
table, as the test only contains the following code.

require File.dirname(FILE) + ‘/…/test_helper’

class UserTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase

Replace this with your real tests.

def test_truth
assert true
end
end

Can anyone tell me what’s going wrong?
Thx

rails will still try to load your fixtures for you. Did you run the
items migration before you had added any columns to it? If you you
probably want to migrate down to 0 (rake migrate VERSION=0) and then
back up again (or since you’re on sqlite just delete the development
database and recreate it and then migrate up).
