Solution

  • instead of post :create, app you need to post :create, id: app

    with this exception, ruby is trying to tell you that you passed something that is not quacking like a hash into the post method, so it does not have a key? method on app.

    i would like to recommend this article about debugging rails in development to you. it might help you improve your debugging skills.

    another note: if you post a question to stackoverflow, you should paste real code instead of screenshots so that it's searchable for others and easy to copy and paste into answers.
