I'm at a loss here, everything was going smoothly until about mid-way through chapter 7 of the Rails tutorial by Michael Hartl. I'm now getting failing tests saying that the email has already been taken, and (I believe because of the first error) it won't save a valid user to change the count by 1. I've gone back to chapter 6 and essentially copy and pasted the code back into my program in hopes that it was a nesting error or similar, but no such luck. Here's the failing tests I get:
Failures:
1) User pages profile page
Failure/Error: let(:user) { FactoryGirl.create(:user) }
ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid:
Validation failed: Email has already been taken
# ./spec/requests/user_pages_spec.rb:8:in block (3 levels) in <top (required)>'
# ./spec/requests/user_pages_spec.rb:9:in
block (3 levels) in '
2) User pages signup with valid information should create a user Failure/Error: expect { click_button submit }.to change(User, :count).by(1) count should have been changed by 1, but was changed by 0 # ./spec/requests/user_pages_spec.rb:43:in `block (4 levels) in '

I know people have run into similar issues with FactoryGirl but it's usually later in the tutorial from what I've gathered and has to do with writing to the development database which I've confirmed is not happening in my instance. If anyone has any help, hints, or resources they'd be greatly appreciated about now.
EDIT: added User.rb
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
before_save { self.email = email.downcase }
validates :name, presence: true, length: { maximum: 50 }
VALID_EMAIL_REGEX = /\A[\w+\-.]+@[a-z\d\-.]+\.[a-z]+\z/i
validates :email, presence: true,
format: { with: VALID_EMAIL_REGEX },
uniqueness: { case_sensitive: false }
has_secure_password
validates :password, length: { minimum: 6 }
end
and factories.rb
FactoryGirl.define do
factory :user do
name "Example Guy"
email "[email protected]"
password "foobar"
password_confirmation "foobar"
end
end
Thanks!
