Question

Below is the code that I have in my rails application. I can’t figure out why it’s causing this error? Any ideas where I should start looking? I don’t get where it’s getting the DELETE FROM workloads call from.

The AccountsController & WorkloadsController are both empty.

Test

require 'test_helper'

class AccountTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase
  # Replace this with your real tests.
  test "the truth" do
    assert true
  end
end

Error

2) Error:
  test_the_truth(AccountTest):
  ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: TinyTds::Error: Invalid object name 'workloads'.: DELETE FROM [workloads]

Account Model

class Account < ActiveRecord::Base
  before_create :set_defaults

  set_table_name "Account"
  set_primary_key "AccountID"

  private
  def set_defaults
    self.UCPIN = UUIDTools::UUID.timestamp_create.to_s
  end
end

Workload Model

class Workload < ActiveRecord::Base
  set_primary_key "WorkloadID"
  set_table_name "Workload"
end

I found the answer… it has to do with fixtures needing to be redefined and reference. Here’s the site that gave me the answer.
