Project Files for Rails App? Testing FAIL.

4 tests, 0 assertions, 0 failures, 4 errors, 0 skips, and 5 hours of my life I'll never get back.

I'm getting the very popular errors when testing for uniqueness of a profile_name. I haven't posted any code/errors as mine look just like what's already posted. I've read every post I can find, done everything recommended, (db migrate/prepare, YAML spacing, removing the password lines from the fixture), but to no avail. After going through the entire tutorial for the third time I'm officially "de-Rails-ed"

When working on the PHP project, the project files were a great resource in problem solving when I had done all that I knew to do but, I can't find project files for the Rails App. Where should I be looking?

Thanks a ton!

I'm a dork who just needed some sleep and time away from staring at a screen. It was a syntax error, I was using = instead of : in YAML.
