Hey,
thanks again for the help, I've given it another one but come up with
pretty much the same errors. (side note the strings I was asserting to
are now symbols)
def test_should_delete_word
assert_equal :published, words(:one).status
delete :destroy, :id => words(:one).to_param
reload!
word_status = Word.find(:id).status
assert_equal :deleted, word_status
end
Again returns: MethodError: undefined method `reload!' for
#<WordsControllerTest:0x2858368>
I also tried reloading on the active record object directly
def test_should_delete_word2
assert_equal :published, words(:one).status
delete :destroy, :id => words(:one).to_param
words(:one).reload (as well as reload!)
word_status = Word.find(:id).status
assert_equal :deleted, word_status
end
It returns: ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound: Couldn't find Word with
ID=id
Eventually it worked with(just a last attempt before I posted):
def test_should_delete_word2
assert_equal :published, words(:one).status
delete :destroy, :id => words(:one).to_param
words(:one).reload
word_status = Word.find(words(:one)).status
assert_equal :deleted, word_status
end
Which I find a little weird. Just because in this and other tests I've
found the fixtures produce weird id's when they hit the db. The only
way I can find matching id's is with the to_param string. So why
Word.find(words(:one)) managed to find a matching ID in the db without
using to_param beats me.
But thanks for everyones input ! If you have any idea about the id's I
wouldn't mind understanding exactly what is going on there.
