Picklist Bug - Unit Tests
I have tried to raise this via Support, but as its APEX generated it is classed as un-suported. If anyone has come across this issue please let me know if you fixed the issue or just coded around.
I am inserting a value into a pickist field via Unit Tests Helper classes (see below) and this field is used by a BI/BU trigger to populate a unique field on the object via concatenation.
The issue is that when the unit tests for a class using this object is run in isolation the asserts pass correctly, however, when I run all tests 2 of the test methods using the helpers below fail. I have tracked this down to the picklist field Lookup_Type__c being set to null somewhere between the insert command executing and the BI/BU trigger running.
I have coded around this in the trigger by checking for the picklist containing null and 'null' but I am not happy with this solution as I believe it to be a platform bug.
Any suggestions appreciated, also if anyone has succesfully raised a bug with Salesforce that exposed itself via APEX - how did you achieve it.
Many thanks

Unit Tests Helper methods being used. This is the only way Transformation__c record are created during Unit Tests.
public static list<Transformation__c> CreateNewTransformations(String lookupType, Integer recCount) { list<Transformation__c> returnList = new list<Transformation__c>(); for (Integer iterator=0; iterator < recCount; iterator++) { returnList.add(GetNewTransformation(lookupType, 'LOOKUPVALUE' + iterator, 'RETURNVALUE' + iterator)); } insert returnList; return returnList; }
public static Transformation__c CreateNewTransformation(String lookupType, String lookupValue, String returnValue) { Transformation__c newTrans = GetNewTransformation(lookupType, lookupValue, returnValue); insert newTrans; return newTrans; }
public static Transformation__c GetNewTransformation(String lookupType, String lookupValue, String returnValue) { return new Transformation__c(Lookup_Type__c = lookupType, Lookup_Value__c = lookupValue, Return_Value__c = returnValue, Lookup_Key__c = lookupType + lookupValue); }
