My Question
def test_check_for_validity
post=County.new(:name=>"myname",:description=>"mydesc")
assert post.save
end
above is the method and when i run unit test it is saying as
1) Failure:
test_check_for_validity(CountyTest) [/test/unit/county_test.rb:10]:
<false> is not true.
what does it say i cannot under stand
please help
your answer
It is saying that the post.save failed (the assert is expecting true,
so false makes the test fail). Possibly your validations are failing.
If you put the line
assert post.valid?, post.errors.full_messages
before the save this will check the item for validity before
attempting to save it and show you any errors from validations (I
think).
