I have been following a tutorial from a (semi-outdated) textbook
describing how to create a rails social networking app. I have reached
the testing phase and have encountered an error I can't seem to solve.
It originates from an asset call in the site_controller_test.rb file.
Error message:
1) Failure:
test_registration_success<SiteControllerTest> [test/functional/
site_controller_test.rb:49]:
<nil> expected to not be nil.

Thanks for any help. It seems like it can retrieve a user from the
post method fine, but once it tries to either insert or pull from the
database it runs into trouble.
