When you run a spec suite, RSpec delegates to Rails to do the same work it does before and after a test suite. One task it runs is db:schema:load, which is defined in Rails. It asks the configured database for a list of tables and then tries to drop and recreate them. This ensures that any data from a previous run is removed, and the schema for the test db matches that of the development db. > rake aborted! > ActiveRecord::ActiveRecordError: ERROR: cannot drop table channels > because other > objects depend on it > Detail: constraint messages_channel_id_fk on table messages depends > on table c > hannels > constraint invitation_workflow_mapping_invitor on table > invitation_workflows dep > ends on table channels > constraint invitation_workflow_mapping_invited_whom_id on table > invitation_workf > lows depends on table channels > constraint invitation_workflow_mapping_invited_for_channel_id on table > invitatio > n_workflows depends on table channels > Hint: Use DROP ...

For whatever reason, the active record adapter you are using is not invoking a cascading delete. What adapter are you using? What database? Also, what other db-related gems do you have in the app? Just type `jruby -S bundle show`. _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
