While following http://guides.rubyonrails.org/testing.html and trying to run test against my auto-generated controller this is the error that I am facing.
Both the controller and the test file for the controller are auto generated. Only change was made to the model by making the title field mandatory.
Not sure what I am missing. Does the rails server needs to be up and running in order to run the functional tests?
