I am creating a TextMessage model to manage communications. I am using shoulda-matchers' for testing
my model
class TextMessage < ApplicationRecord
validates :message, presence: true
end
Now my test
RSpec.describe TextMessage, type: :model do
subject { FactoryBot.create(:text_message) }
it { is_expected.to validate_presence_of :message }
end
I am able to run FactoryBot.create(:text_message) on the console to create a text message without any problems. But when I run my test sweet I get this error
TextMessage
is expected to validate that :message cannot be empty/falsy (FAILED - 1)
Failures:
1) TextMessage is expected to validate that :message cannot be empty/falsy
Failure/Error: self.message = message.gsub("\u0000", '')
NoMethodError:
