Rails Ruby on Rails

In Rails 2.3.8, When I write a test like

require 'test_helper'
require 'test/unit'
include Test::Unit::Assertions


class PostTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase

  def test_find_the_bug
    assert true
  end
  
  def test_presence_of_title
    post = Post.new(:body=>"Some content")
    assert !post.save,"Saved post without title"
  end
  
  
  def test_presence_of_body
    post = Post.new(:title=>"Some title")
    assert !post.save,"saved post without body"
  end
  
  
  def test_presence_of_body_and_title
    post = Post.new(:title=>"Some title",:body=>"")
    assert !post.save,"Saved Post without body"
    
    post = Post.new(:title => "",:body=>"Some body")
    assert !post.save,"Saved Post without title"
    
    post = Post.new(:title =>"",:body=>"")
    assert !post.save,"Saved Post with title and body"
    
    
  end
  
  
  def test_title_minimum_width_3
    post1 = Post.new(:title=>"a",:body=>"This will not be saved")
    assert !post1.save,"Saved post with title length less than 3"
    
    post2 = Post.new(:title=>"abcd",:body=>"This will be saved")
    assert post2.save,"Couldnot save a valid post record"
  
    post3 = Post.new(:title=>"abc",:body=>"This will be saved")
    assert post3.save,"Could not save a valid record"
  end
end

and run the file from test directory, here is what I get.. is this a bug
