I am testing an update via assert_equal and it does not seem to work.

I have this fixture:
bob1:
  id: 1000001
  login: bob
  glogin: [email protected]
  session_token: 77a38

Here is my test method:
class Guser < ActiveRecord::Base
  def self.update_token(glogin, login, stoken)
    u=find(:first, :conditions=>["glogin = ? AND login = ?", glogin, login])
        return nil if u.nil?
        if u.session_token != stoken
                u.session_token = stoken
                u.save
                return u
    end
        #nil
  end  
end

Here is where I call the method, where I match the 'glogin' and 'login'
column values and if they match I want to update the session token.

require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../test_helper'
class GuserTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase
  self.use_instantiated_fixtures  = true
  fixtures :users
  def test_match_login
     assert_equal  @bob1, Guser.update_token("[email protected]", "bob",
"77a38") 
  end

The first time even if there is no record in the database it inserts and
gives a success message:
1 tests, 1 assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors, 0 skips

Then I run it again by changing the method argument like this to update the
sesison token
 assert_equal  @bob1, Guser.update_token("[email protected]", "bob", "77a138") 
It still gives a success message: 1 tests, 1 assertions, 0 failures, 0
errors, 0 skips

The new value of session token is never updated in the table column from
'77a38'  to '77a38' . Can you please tell me how to update the sesison token
if my glogin and login fields are found to match
