Migration not executed from rspec - ruby-on-rails

Question

I created the following migration script (using bundle exec rails generate migration CreateSequenceStudentId):
class CreateSequenceStudentId < ActiveRecord::Migration[6.0]
def change
# Based on: https://schmijos.medium.com/execute-sql-in-rails-migrations-cdb26f51c683
execute 'CREATE SEQUENCE IF NOT EXISTS student_id;'
end
end
Then executed bundle exec rails db:migrate RAILS_ENV=test and it completed. I can access the sequence using psql student_test -c"select nextval('student_id')". Running psql student_test -c"select * from schema_migrations sm" lists 20201122013457 at the very last. No problems so far.
I then wrote the following spec to access the sequence:
sql = "select nextval('student_id')"
p Student.connection.select_all(sql)
And it failed:
# --- Caused by: ---
# PG::UndefinedTable:
# ERROR: relation "student_id" does not exist
# LINE 1: select nextval('student_id')
And I executed psql student_test -c"select nextval('student_id')" one more time and got:
ERROR: relation "student_id" does not exist
LINE 1: select nextval('student_id')
bundle exec rails db:migrate:status RAILS_ENV=test gives:
Status Migration ID Migration Name
--------------------------------------------------
...
up 20201122013457 Create sequence student
So it indicates the migration executed successfully.
psql student_test -c"select * from schema_migrations sm" gives:
version
----------------
20201122013457
20191209013052
20191220005953
20191225001051
20191225001255
20191225001458
...
The new script was executed first. This smells fishy.
Sounds like the migration ran successfully when using db:migrate but not when running rspec. Appreciate any pointers on what I could be doing wrong.
PS: Based on this solution, I have checked if the script name is unique and it is.

Answer 1

I was able to fix your issue by running exact below commands. I found the answer here.
RAILS_ENV=test rake db:drop
RAILS_ENV=test rake db:create
RAILS_ENV=test rake db:migrate
UPDATE:
I found also the way to fix rails db:reset command, you just need to add line config.active_record.schema_format = :sql in your application.rb so info about sequence will be stored in structure.sql. Please take a look that with default schema dump :ruby info about seqeunce is not stored in schema.rb file.
Important: make sure to firstly create structure.sql with rails db:migrate and then run rails db:reset. After just rails db:migrate I'm still getting the error you want to fix.
