Subject: Problems with Test::Unit and Ruby 1.8?


I've got some unit tests that run fine in 1.6.8, but don't work under 
1.8.0.  Everything else seems OK between the two Ruby versions - if I run 
programs using the classes and visually check the output, things seem OK, 
but when I actually run unit tests on these classes I get a lot of error 
messages, like:

  2) Error!!!
test_assign(TestSignal):
NoMethodError: undefined method `<<' for nil
    testSignal.rb:18:in `test_assign'
    testSignal.rb:120


Lot's of things seem to be nil that shouldn't be.

Anyone else seen problems with Test::Unit under 1.8.0?
