Question

anyone passed through this?

the scene is a nested form on user creation, where:

1. User has_one Profile
2. Profile belongs_to user

so my factory is configured in this way but when i run the test aways bring me this result:

 Failure/Error: user_attributes[:user_attributes][:profile_attributes] = Factory.attributes_for :profile
     NoMethodError:
       undefined method `[]=' for nil:NilClass

Factory

Factory.define :user do |f|
  f.after_build do |user|  
    f.email                 '[e-mail]'
    f.password              'password'
    f.password_confirmation 'password'  
    user.profile ||= Factory.build(:profile, :user => user)
  end
end

Factory.define :profile do |f| 
  f.after_build do |profile|
    profile.user ||= Factory.build(:user, :profile => profile)

  f.nome          'alguem'
  f.sobrenome     'alguem'
  f.endereco      'rua x'
  f.numero        '95'
  f.genero        'm'
  f.complemento   'casa'
  f.bairro        'bairro x'
  f.cidade        'cidade x'
  f.estado        'estado x'
  f.cep           '232323'


end

end

describe "CreateUsers" do

    before :each do

      user_attributes = Factory.attributes_for :user
      user_attributes[:user_attributes][:profile_attributes] = Factory.attributes_for :profile

    @user = User.new(user_attributes)

    end

Assuming that you are trying to auto create a profile when you create a user then try building it this way, using the new FactoryGirl syntax:

Factory file:

FactoryGirl.define do
  factory :user do
    email                 '[e-mail]'
    password              'password'
    password_confirmation 'password'
    after_build do |profile|
      user.profile << FactoryGirl.build(:profile, :user => user)
    end
  end

  factory :profile do
    nome          'alguem'
    sobrenome     'alguem'
    endereco      'rua x'
    numero        '95'
    genero        'm'
    complemento   'casa'
    bairro        'bairro x'
    cidade        'cidade x'
    estado        'estado x'
    cep           '232323'
    user
  end
end

Note the addition of user in the profile factory with defines the association on the profile record. Provided your user factory is called :user you do not have to pass any arguments.

You should then be able to call

@user = FactoryGirl.build(:user)

and it will build both a user and a profile. You can see the profile by calling @user.profile.

If you call @user = FactoryGirl.create(:user) it will create both the user and the profile, inserting the user_id into the profile record.
