Hello,
I have some tests that run fine with rails 4.0 which use factory_girl and rspec and they fail using Rails 4.0.1.rc4
My rspec and factory_girl gems are up to date and the problem only appears once I get on rc4 rails.
Has anybody else had issues running there specs using factory girl on the latest release candidate? Any pointers or gotchas that I might be missing?
Here’s my stacktrace if it helps:
Failure/Error: user = FactoryGirl.create(:user)

Are you using protected_attributes gem?
Yes I am. I see now that I have 1.0.3 installed. I assume I need 1.0.4 to get going again here.
Yes. 1.0.3 has a know issue with Rails 4.0.1 that was fixed on 1.0.4
Just installed 1.0.4 and I’m back in business. Thanks for the heads up and help!
No problem. Thank you for testing the rc and reporting back.
