Ruby on Rails failing test

I seem to be getting a failing test all of the sudden:

 1) Failure:
test: #index when logged in should display pending information on an accepted     friendship. (UserFriendshipsControllerTest)     [test/functional/user_friendships_controller_test.rb:41]:
<"Friendship is accepted."> expected but was
<"Friendship is pending.">.

Line 40 - 44 in my test:

  should "display pending information on an accepted friendship" do
    assert_select "#user_friendship_#{@friendship1.id}" do
      assert_select "em", "Friendship is accepted."
    end
  end

And here's what's in my index action of user_friendships_controller.rb

def index
  @user_friendships = current_user.user_friendships.all
end

Hi Jon, can you zip up your project and email it to help@teamtreehouse.com?

Just searched through the forums to find this post to see if anyone replied! Must have missed your reply in my email. Zipping up and sending now. I just spent the morning again trying to figure out what the problem was.

I believe I'm ok now. The version of the Draper gem I had was more recent than what was originally in the videos, and I needed some delegate_all in the UserFriendshipDecorator.

I am, however, getting this error now:

Error:
test_should_update_status_for_the_current_user_when_logged_in(StatusesControllerTest):
ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound: Couldn't find Status with id=980190962 [WHERE "statuses"."user_id" = 754184369]

Found the issue with that one too. I was signing in the wrong user for the "should update status for teh current user when logged in" test.

I believe I'm good to go. All tests pass.
