I think I was misunderstood. I am not saying to use create rather than
create! ... In this case, I just use it because will help me with puts for
debug my own error in spec.
In this case a really don't know what is going on, if I use create! I can't
store the value in a var and then try to look what is the message of the
failed attribute with puts.
I using puts to print the error object to debug who is the wrong attribute.
If I use create! I will have this message:
Validation failed: Property is not valid => and cant use puts to know the
content of @errors
If I use create and print the result of fixture I will get:
<ActiveRecord::Errors:0x23af4b0 @errors={"user"=>["não pode ser vazio"]},
@base=#<Property id: 996332877, user_id: 317248456, ...
And find the problem, it is just for debugging and help me to find where is
the problem, after fix this I will change to create! again.

Anyone can figure why even property_id and owner_id are defined still raise
"can't be blank" ?
Thanks a lot for all help.
