I don't want rspec to let me save two objects of the class with the same name, however it does. Is there something I'm missing?
My model:
class Product < ActiveRecord::Base
validates :title, :description, :image_url, presence: true
validates :price, numericality: {greater_than_or_equal_to: 0.01}
validates :title, uniqueness: true
validates :image_url, allow_blank: true, format: {
with: %r{\.(gif|jpg|png)\Z}i,
message: 'must be a URL for GIF, JPG or PNG image'
}
end
my test:
describe "when creating products with identical names" do
let(:book1) { FactoryGirl.create(:product, title: 'identical') }
let(:book2) { FactoryGirl.build(:product, title: 'identical') }
it "raises unique validation error" do
expect(book2).not_to be_valid
end
end
this is what I get:
1) Product when creating products with identical names raises unique validation error
Failure/Error: expect(book2).not_to be_valid
expected #<Product id: nil, title: "identical", description: "Some crazy wibbles, that are fun", image_url: "freddie_mercury.jpg", price: #<BigDecimal:7f995cdd1358,'0.5699E2',18(27)>, created_at: nil, updated_at: nil> not to be valid
I can even write two times FactoryGirl.create, it just saves.
However if I switch over to rails console and try to create two objects with two identical names, I receive an error. Something wrong with my testing environment?
