Try creating the factories in a weird order. If they still are returned in the correct order, then your sorting is correct. ...or... Write the test so that it checks that the appropriate :order clause is set. This is probably too invasive and implementation-dependent for my taste, though I might do it occasionally. > > Colin Best, -- Marnen Laibow-Koser http://www.marnen.org [email protected] -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
