Just working my way through the Treebook course and have been quite successful in tackling the ROR 4 problems but now i'm stuck.
When I run my test's i get this error: 1) Error: UserTest#test_a_user_should_enter_a_first_name: ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: SQLite3::SQLException: table statuses has no column named name: INSERT INTO "statuses" ("name", "content", "created_at", "updated_at", "id") VALUES ('MyString', 'MyText', '2014-05-17 06:42:52', '2014-05-17 06:42:52', 980190962)
And so on...
As "rake db:test:prepare" is now depreciated I ran " rake test:prepare" instead and I've also run "rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=test" but still the error is here.
I've searched the forums and the closest was the "no column named password" but this fix doesn't solve this issue.
Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Jason eventually does this, but it's not obvious nor clear when he does if I remember right.
