HI, i am running my integration test in terminal and got this error…

Hello and welcome,

Can You provide some code?

It’s hard to understand what You are trying to do…

yes
here is the code.

@base_urlhttp://administration.example.com/api/checks

setup do
admin = AppCount.UserHelper.new_admin(%{roles: [“Admin”]})

{:ok, %{check: insert(:check), admin: admin}}

end
test “SHOW /api/checks/:id”, %{check: check, admin: admin, conn: conn} do
response =
conn
|> admin_request(admin)
|> get(@base_url <> “/#{check.id}”)
|> json_response(200)

assert is_binary(response)

end

getting error in this test case

The code you posted doesn’t seem directly related to this error, but here’s what I can gather from the stacktrace:

  • something (maybe in another test?) is starting a Task that calls AppCount.Data.Utils.PDF.write_tmp_pdf/2
  • that function depends on an ETS table named :fake_http_client
  • that table doesn’t exist anymore. Maybe it’s deleted by code in an on_exit?

This can happen if you’re testing something that launches a Task as a side-effect but not waiting for the task to complete.
