Error for Test Class on Controller

Hello,

I have a pretty simple test class on a controller, which worked fine in my developer environment. However, I am now moving it to a sandbox and I'm running into an error:

System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: CANNOT_INSERT_UPDATE_ACTIVATE_ENTITY, AccountTrigger: execution of BeforeInsert caused by: System.NullPointerException: Argument cannot be null.
Class.TriggerHandlerAccount.mapRegions: line 94, column 1
Class.TriggerHandlerAccount.beforeInsert: line 19, column 1
Trigger.AccountTrigger: line 6, column 1:


I know it's being caused by a trigger class that was created by a vendor for my organization, but I can'f figure out what I need to change in my test classes to avoid the error. Can anyone help?

Test Class for Controller:
@Istest
private class TestControllerShortForm
{
    static testMethod void testSFController1()
    {    
        Account acct1 = TestCreateRecords.createAcct(0);
        insert acct1;

        Opportunity opp1 = TestCreateRecords.createOppNewSF(acct1.Id);
        insert opp1;

        Short_Form__c ESF1 = new Short_Form__c();
            ESF1.Sales_Representative__c = acct1.AM_owner__c;
            ESF1.Opportunity__c = opp1.Id;
            ESF1.Partner_Contact__c = '00337000006fBvQ';
            ESF1.Term_Length__c = 12;
            ESF1.Term_Metric__c = 'Months';
            ESF1.Additional_Terms__c = 'Test Test Test';

        ApexPages.StandardController SF1 = new ApexPages.standardController(opp1);

        SFCont1.ESF.add(ESF1);
        SFCont1.ShortForm();
        SFCont1.save();

    }

Hey,

You need to create custtom setting in Test Class
for this line Region_Mapper_Settings__c errorMessage = Region_Mapper_Settings__c.getInstance();

Some thing like this :
insert new CustomSetting__c(Field__c = 'Value')
Hope this helps

Hi Swayam,

Can you elaborate?  I'm not quote sure what you mean by creating a custom setting.  Thanks,
Swayam@SalesforceGuySwayam@SalesforceGuy
Hi,

Check this class TriggerHandlerAccount 

Here your are getting 

Region_Mapper_Settings__c errorMessage = Region_Mapper_Settings__c.getInstance(); This from custom setting, which is similar to custom object which you need to create in Test Class as you created the account and other object in Test Data

Hope this helps

Hi,

This error is causing due to a trigger named 'AccountTrigger' available either in sandbox or production.
Please make sure both have the same trigger with exact same code and also fields of Account object should also be same.

Hope this helps you.

Thanks,

Thanks Swayam. I didn't realize that was a custom setting.  I added the line:
 
insert new Region_Mapper_Settings__c(Name='Test');

to my controller test class before the Account creation line, but I still get the errors.  Am I adding that correctly?
John Neilan 2John Neilan 2
Thanks Ansh.  That trigger simply calls the class above that is throwing the error, which is why I did not post the trigger.

@john
Please provide the code or snippet of the trigger.
Thanks
