Validate() is run always before one of the more specific validation methods
I did not see this mentioned explicitly anywhere.
The method validate is run always before a call to validate_on_create or validate_on_update is made.
Example:
class Foo < ActiveRecord::Base def validate puts 'In validate' end def validate_on_create puts 'In validate_on_create' end def validate_on_update puts 'In validate_on_update' end end
Now, when creating a new Foo using script/console, the output is as follows:
In validate In validate_on_create
and when updating a Foo, the output looks like:
In validate In validate_on_update
