Can you show me the code in your config/database.yml file and also your test/fixtures/(all files in this directory)?

Hello,

I am having similar problems while doing 'unit testing (page 184). I get the following error:

Any ideas?

It looks like you have a typo. Your validation call should read validates_presence_of. I think you have it validates_present_of

Yeap,

My story.rb was incorrect, should be ‘presence’.

I corrected that, however, get the remaining errors, could this be because I am using a new version of the gems?

Thanks,
Ram

can you show me the code in your story model and the stories tests?

story.rb

class Story &lt; ActiveRecord::Base
	validates_presence_of :name, :link
	has_many :votes
	
	def to_param
		"#{id}-#{name.gsub(/\\W/, '-').downcase}"
	end
	
end

story_test.rb

require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../test_helper'

class StoryTest &lt; ActiveSupport::TestCase
  
  def test_should_not_be_valid_without_name
    s = Story.create(:name =&gt; nil, :link =&gt; 'http://www.testsubmission.com/')
    assert s.errors.on(:name)
  end
  
  def test_should_not_be_valid_without_link
    s = Story.create(:name =&gt; 'My test submission', :link =&gt; nil)
    assert s.errors.on(:link)
  end
  
  def test_should_create_story
    s = Story.create(
      :name =&gt; 'My test submission',
      :link =&gt; 'http://www.testsubmission.com/')
    assert s.valid?
  end

end

stories_controller_test

require 'test_helper'

class StoriesControllerTest &lt; ActionController::TestCase
  # Replace this with your real tests.
	def test_should_show_index
		get: index
		assert_response: success
		assert_template: 'index'
		assert_not_nil assigns(:story)
	end
end

stories_helper_test.rb

require 'test_helper'

class StoriesHelperTest &lt; ActionView::TestCase
end

I appreciate your guidance.

From the error messages it looks like you are missing a library or gem. You can try updating all your gems by calling “gem update” on the command line.
