Hi guys,
Need some help.
I am using Rails 2.0 and while writing functional test, I encountered the following problem
class UserControllerTest < ActionController::TestCase fixtures :users ... def do_something attempt_login(users(:valid_user)) # assuming valid_user is a proper line in ... end
def attempt_login(user) post :login, :user => { :login => user.login, :password => user.password } end
Running the test: ...
1) Error: do_something(UserControllerTest): NoMethodError: You have a nil object when you didn't expect it! The error occurred while evaluating nil.login test/functional/user_controller_test.rb:41:in `attempt_login' test/functional/user_controller_test.rb:32:in `do_something' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.0.2/lib/active_support/ testing/default.rb:7:in `run'
* I tried putting fixtures :users within setup, still the same problem. This works if I derive Test::Unit::TestCase instead of the new rails 2.0 default class
