I figured out the problem... thought I would put it on here in case
anyone else had the same issue.
fixtures :special_ownerships, :users, :roles, :users_roles
def setup
@controller = Administer::SpecialOwnershipsController.new
@request = ActionController::TestRequest.new
@response = ActionController::TestResponse.new
# Login User
@request.session[:user] = User.find(1)
end
I believe that my problem was not having fixtures for :roles and
:user_roles set up correctly.
