I’m developing against stable and I just found I am no longer able to execute backend tests. Not just my own tests, but also those of standard plugins. They all error out with the same reason. $ bin/rspec plugins/discourse-subscriptions/ Detected plugin spec path, setting LOAD_PLUGINS to 1 An error occurred while loading rails_helper. Failure/Error: SeedFu.seed RuntimeError: Undeclared attribute type for enum 'chat_email_frequency' in UserOption. Enums must be backed by a database column or declared with an explicit type via `attribute`. # ./spec/rails_helper.rb:139:in ` ' No examples found. Finished in 0.00004 seconds (files took 3.45 seconds to load) 0 examples, 0 failures, 1 error occurred outside of examples It has been a while since I ran the tests local as I was busy with frontend stuff for my new plugin. So I didn’t notice when it broke. I don’t have the problem when I run an arbitrary test of discourse. So according to the error the test database is missing a column. Upon inspect it is indeed missing. I have already executed RAILS_ENV=test bin/rails db:migrate:reset to rebuild the test database but it ends in the same result. It looks like some migrations for the chat plugin are not included. But I cannot figure out why. The development database does have these columns.

It looks like your test DB isn’t loading plugin migrations. Try running: RAILS_ENV=test LOAD_PLUGINS=1 bin/rails db:migrate This ensures plugin migrations are applied to the test database. This issue matches what was discussed here: [תמונה] Undeclared attribute type for enum 'chat_send_shortcut' in UserOption Development I ran into this same issue adding a new enum. Turns out I had to explicitly run the plugin migrations for the test environment: RAILS_ENV=test LOAD_PLUGINS=1 bin/rails db:migrate

D’oh! That’s it. I should have checked my shell history.
