ActiveRecord Rollback does not work in Rails test

Question

Throwing ActiveRecord::Rollback works, but not in tests.

I\'ve had this problem before, am now having it again, and for some reason can\'t find any record of someone

Answer 1

Actually the method to call is as follows:

class RollbackTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase
  self.use_transactional_fixtures = false

not self.use_transaction_fixtures (note the missing 'al')

Answer 2

You should turn off transactions in your test case:

class RollbackTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase
  self.use_transactional_fixtures = false

[edit: as per @Conrad's comment it should be transactionAL]
