I've got a few tests running with RSpec for a Rails site, but despite
following the instructions things aren't quite behaving themselves.
I create an article via a Factory, run Sunspot.commit and then check
the results. I always seem to draw a blank though. When I test it
manually via the console or through the website it all works find
though.
Any ideas? How can I output the sunspot logs to see what's going on?
My Gemfile has the following, and I'm running Rails 3.1.1
gem 'sunspot', '1.2.1'
gem 'sunspot_rails'
gem 'sunspot_test'
Many thanks,
Graeme
It was my fault for not reading the manual properly.

It's necessary to add a magic bit to the description to make sure that Solr is started.
describe "my nice test", :search => true do
thing = Factory.create(:thing)
Sunspot.commit
# do my search and test
# now it works!
end
It's the :search => true that's important.
Just to add a little something to the response above; if using FactoryGirl:
FactoryGirl.define do
after(:create) { Sunspot.commit }
...
end
then you won't have to add the commit call on each test file...
