Huh. The test is definitely adding & deleting from my current (fedora_test) environment. When I comment out the deletion test, the load test creates: http://localhost:8983/fedora-test/objects/sdr:DSS-NYCDCP_DCPLION_10cav-DSS-Lion_GJK

However, when I try to test that this is happening, I get:      
Failure/Error: expect { data_loader.load }.to change(Nyucore, :count).by(+1)
       count should have been changed by 1, but was changed by 0

Could there be something wrong with my environment? Perhaps Nyucore is looking in my main rather than test fedora?
