Re: Test Controller with Fixtures problem

This can be closed - for anybody having this prob in the future:

Always make sure to create fixtures for all models in your system if
you're adding the tests late in the game. Furthermore, sometimes you
will get extra problems if you didn't set your fixtures to import
records, so ensure you're doing that too.

Good luck!
