You have to call "reload" to clear activerecord caches. Destroying an
associated record does not affect the cache.

One way you could write your spec is like this:

expect { group.add_resource(user) }.to change(group, :users).by(1)
expect { group.toggle_resource(user) }.to change(group, :users).by(-1)

Let us know if that works for you. Thanks.
