You can always temporarily change your test to:
user = FactoryGirl.build(:user, password: "secret")
and then check user.valid?
and user.errors
質問
I have a user factory like this:
FactoryGirl.define do
factory :user do
email "email@x.com"
password "123456789"
end
end
I am trying to create a spec for the user:
describe User do
it "should create a user with password" do
user = FactoryGirl.create(:user, password: "secret")
user.password.should == "secret"
end
end
When I run the test, I get this message:
1) User should create a user with password
Failure/Error: user = FactoryGirl.create(:user, password: "secret")
ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid:
is invalid
# ./spec/models/user_spec.rb:3:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>'
# -e:1:in `<main>'
The problem is: how to discover what are the fields in the model that are invalid? In other words, how to print the error messages inside the model?

他のヒント
Sometimes the build
method gives you the same ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid: Record invalid
. In that case you might want to look for any associated records that your factory creates, maybe the validation problem comes from those instead.
