Test "profile name without spaces" fail...

Hi there :)

According to the answer in the previous question, I put the suggested code 

validates :profile_name,  presence: true,
                                            uniqueness: true,
                                            format: {

                                                            with: /\A[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+\z/,
                                                            message: "Must be formatted correctly."

                                                        }

So the test : correcty formated profile name pass, but the name without space fails now ... I don't know how to set it... don't understand much about regular expressions...

Hope you could me guys, Steve Hunter maybe ?

Cheers :)

RegExp looks good. Could you provide your test spec file?

yes sure :smile:

  test "A user should have a profile name without spaces " do
    user = User.new(first_name: 'Jason', last_name:'Seifer', email: 'jason2@tree.com')
    user.password = user.password_confirmation = '123456'

    user.profile_name ="My profile name with spaces"

    assert !user.save
    assert !user.errors[:profile_name].empty?
    assert user.errors[:profile_name].include?("Must be formated correctly.")
  end

Hmm, you have misspelled word in assertion :)

"Must be formated correctly." not equal to "Must be formatted correctly."
