Rails 5 - Controller generator doesn't generate test suite

[Srinivasa Raghavan Kandala]

Hello Guys,

  I was trying out Rails 5 with a sample app and was using the controller generator to generate a controller. 

  Eg: rails generate controller StaticPages home help 

      create  app/controllers/static_pages_controller.rb

       route  get 'static_pages/help'

       route  get 'static_pages/home'

      invoke  erb

      create    app/views/static_pages

      create    app/views/static_pages/home.html.erb

      create    app/views/static_pages/help.html.erb

      invoke  helper

      create    app/helpers/static_pages_helper.rb

      invoke  assets

      invoke    coffee

      create      app/assets/javascripts/static_pages.coffee

      invoke    scss

      create      app/assets/stylesheets/static_pages.scss

 No files related to test suite are generated.

 Did any of you face this issue before or am I missing something ? 

Thanks,

Raghavan.

It's probably disabled in config/application.rb. Do you have a config.generators block with config.test_framework nil?

Thanks for the hint Nithin. 

I don't have any such block in the application.rb file, but the following line 

require "rails/test_unit/railtie" in that file was commented out. 

Uncommenting that line out did generate the test suite also. I looked in all the config files except this one.

I wonder why that line is commented out ? This is a new blank app generated using rails new. Is it because people use Rspec more than test_unit / minitest ? 

Thanks & Regards,

Raghavan.

The code generator problem got fixed, however I am still not able to run the test. 

rails test => throws uninitailized constant ActionDispatch

rake test => throws undefined local variable or method static_pages_home_url 

But, I have the necessary routes defined for this named url to work.
