Test fails with :allow_blank and :allow_nil are true
Reported by Karl Smith | February 7th, 2008 @ 01:51 PM
In model:
validates_length_of :middle_initial, :is => 1, :allow_blank => true
Will fail test with:
should_ensure_length_in_range :middle_initial, (1..1)
should_ensure_length_in_range :middle_initial, (0..1)
Reason:
should_ensure_length_in_range will test the attribute with a zero length string, which is valid when :allow_blank is set to true. And skips lengths less than zero, as in the second case.
