Error when logging in with Machinist in Shoulda test

I am having some trouble getting the right usage of Machinist and Shoulda in my testing.

Here is my test:

 context "on POST method rating" do
p = Product.make
u = nil
setup do
  u = login_as
  post :vote, :rating => 3, :id => p
end

should "set rating for product to 3" do
  assert_equal p.get_user_vote(u), 3
end

And here's my blueprints:

 Sham.login { Faker::Internet.user_name }
Sham.name { Faker::Lorem.words}
Sham.email { Faker::Internet.email}
Sham.body { Faker::Lorem.paragraphs(2)}

User.blueprint do
 login
 password "testpass"
 password_confirmation { password }
 email
end

Product.blueprint do
 name {Sham.name}
 user {User.make}
end

And my authentication test helper:

def login_as(u = nil)
   u ||= User.make()
   @controller.stubs(:current_user).returns(u)
   u
 end

The error I get is:

/home/jason/moderndarwin/vendor/rails/activerecord/lib/active_record/validations.rb:1090:in `save_without_dirty!': Validation failed: Login has already been taken, Email has already been taken (ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid)

I can't figure out what it is I'm doing wrong... I have tested the login_as with my auth (Authlogic) in my user_controller testing.

Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated!

I've got a partial solution... I've solved the problem above, but the should_redirect_to function is still giving me fits...

This is my new test code:

context "on POST method rating" do

   setup do
     @u = login_as
     @p1 = Product.make
     @p2 = Product.make # Make a second product that we'll show after rating the first
     post :vote, :rating => 3, :id => @p1
   end

   should "set rating for product to 3" do
     assert_equal @p1.get_user_vote(@u), 3
   end

   should_redirect_to("product page") {show_product_url(:id => @p2)}    
 end

And my new error:

response to be a redirect to <http://test.host/products/555660218> but was a redirect to <http://test.host/products>.

Any ideas where to go from here?

Is your controller redirecting to products_url?

Side note: you shouldn't use random data (Faker) for any validation that requires uniqueness. That's what Factory Girl's sequences are for. I assume Machinist has something similar.
