The test succeeds if I change the index method in my StoriesController class so it creates a Story object rather than retrieving one from the test database.
Old index method... def index @current_time = Time.now @story = Story.find(:first, :order => 'RANDOM()') end New index method... def index @current_time = Time.now @story = Story.new @story.name = 'A test' @story.link = 'http://a_test.com/' end It seems the problem is that there is no rows in the Stories table in the test database. Can someone please explain how the test database is populated? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
