I am using devise for authentication in my rails app and I'm unable to test any model with RSpec. Controller specs work fine, but I'm unable to make model specs work.

I am getting this error:

Failures:

1) Group should create new group

Failure/Error: Unable to find matching line from backtrace

I have included

  config.include Devise::TestHelpers

in my spec_helper.rb. Here is my model test file

require 'spec_helper'

describe Group do

  before :each do 
    @group = Factory.build(:group)
  end 

  it "should create new group" do
    Group.create!(@group)
  end
end

This is my factories.rb file

Factory.define :group do |group|
  group.name "Example group"
  group.description "Example description"
end

How to fix this?

that's the whole error? no line number?corroded
yeah, no line number. I can put stack trace if it helps...shime
Yes, please include the full stacktrace.Mark Thomas
why arey ou creating a group again when you've already created a factory of the group? should it be @group.should_not be_nil instead of Group.create!corroded
I think factory doesn't create anything. It just defines attributes. Anyways, it doesn't work with @group.should_not be_nil either. Throwing the same error.shime
