i am working through the Beginning Ruby on Rails Ecommerce book and on page 101 where it is talking about integration tests, i run test/integration/book_test.rb and it fails giving me the following error message:
1) Failure: test_book_administration(BookTest) [test/integration/book_test.rb:45:in `add_book' test/integration/book_test.rb:11:in `test_book_administration'

looking through the code, i clearly see that "Ruby for Dummies" is in fact in there and I also see that it is wrapped inside of "td" html tags... so why is this test failing? i thought there might have been a typo in my code somewhere, so i downloaded the sample code from the site and i still got the same error message.
i'm new to TDD so i'm not really sure where to start troubleshooting this
