record type doesn't get set in Apex

In a test class, I am trying to create an opportunity of a specified record type. 

 

   //create opportunity record
        String opportunityName= 'xxxx';
            Opportunity o = new Opportunity(
            AccountId=a.Id, 
            Name=opportunityName, 
            StageName='Prospecting', 
            CloseDate=Date.today(),
            Opportunity_Type__c='New',
            LeadSource='xxx',
            RecordTypeId= [Select Id From RecordType Where Name = 'xxx' and SobjectType= 'Opportunity'].Id);
            
        insert o;
        system.debug(o.RecordType.Name);

 

However this returns- null in the debug statement. I'm sure i'm overlooking something simple. Any help?

You will need to explicitly query when you want related object field values..

 

...

...

insert o;

 

opportunity opp = [select recordType.name from opportunity where Id = :o.Id];

system.debug(opp.recordType.Name);

Well, if you are writing a testmethod. Then, how about creating a recordtype before creating an opportunity?

 

//create a recordtype
RecordType rt = new RecordType(Name='xxx', SObjectType='Opportunity');
insert rt;

//create opportunity record
        String opportunityName= 'xxxx';
            Opportunity o = new Opportunity(
            AccountId=a.Id, 
            Name=opportunityName, 
            StageName='Prospecting', 
            CloseDate=Date.today(),
            Opportunity_Type__c='New',
            LeadSource='xxx',
            RecordTypeId= rt.Id;
            
        insert o;
        system.debug(o.RecordType.Name);

 Hope that helps.

RecordType rt = new RecordType(Name='yyy', SObjectType='Opportunity');
insert rt;
        String opportunityName= 'yyyy';
            Opportunity o = new Opportunity(
            AccountId=a.Id, 
            Name=opportunityName, 
            StageName='Prospecting', 
            CloseDate=Date.today(),
            Opportunity_Type__c='New',
            LeadSource='yyy',
            RecordTypeId= rt.Id;
            
        insert o;
        system.debug(o.RecordType.Name);
