Unit test succeeds in sandbox and fails in production

I have a unit test for a trigger which has to create a contact.  LastName is a required field to create a contact.  I use The following statements to create the contact.

 

 

 Contact con= new Contact(accountId=acc.Id,LastName='Test1');
        insert con;       

 

In the sandbox this statement works fine.  But after deploying to the production version when the test is run it fails with the following message:

 

Failure Message: "System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING, Required fields are missing: [LastName]: [LastName]", Failure Stack Trace: "Class.TestupdateEvent_HistoryInfo.triggerTest: line 15, column 9 External entry point"

 

Here's hoping someone can guide me out of this forest to a happy resolution

 

Thanks

It seems that the fields in sandbox and production system does not match. I think you have forgotten to deploy some of the changes done.

Piece of code what ever you have posted is correct, however in the entire test method there might be a problem

 

Follow the best practices from the below url

http://wiki.developerforce.com/index.php/An_Introduction_to_Apex_Code_Test_Methods

 

If you can't solve this then I recommend you to post the test method completely, so that someone can help you

Hisrinu,

 

I checked all the fields in production to make sure that they were identical to those in the sandbox (per Pradeep_Navatar) and now I am publishing the entire unit text code per your own suggestion.

 

 

/*Salesforce.com Extension Doug copied from Shipment

@isTest
private class TestupdateEvent_HistoryInfo {    
    static testMethod void triggerTest(){ 
        
        //insert test account   
        Account acc= new Account(name='Test Account 1.0');
        insert acc;
        //insert test contact        
        Contact con= new Contact(accountId=acc.Id,LastName='Test1',ContactType__c='Other');
        insert con;
        
        //insert test event        
        Event_History__c evt = new Event_History__c(contact__c=con.Id);
        insert evt;
    }
    
}

@isTest

private class TestupdateEvent_HistoryInfo {    
static testMethod void triggerTest(){               

 

//insert test account         

 Account acc= new Account(name='Test Account 1.0');      

 insert acc;

 //insert test contact                

Contact con= new Contact(accountId=acc.Id,LastName='Test1',ContactType__c='Other');        

insert con;                

 

//insert test event                

Event_History__c evt = new Event_History__c(contact__c=con.Id);      

 insert evt;    

     }  

 

 }

 

I retried it and the same thing happened - in the sandbox the unit test runs OK but after deployment it fails in production with the following message

 

Failure Message: "System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING, Required fields are missing: [LastName]: [LastName]", Failure Stack Trace: "Class.TestupdateEvent_HistoryInfo.triggerTest: line 15, column 9 External entry point"

 

Thanks Hisrinu for the suggestion to publish all the code

 

Doug
