Why am I getting invalidArgument exception while running unit test?

Inside my Table view controller I have following method

-(BOOL)isValidCoordinate:(CLLocationCoordinate2D)coordinate
{
   //This is just to make sure exception is always thrown a cut down version of method
    [NSException raise:@"Invalid longitude value" format:@"Longitude of %d is invalid", coordinate.longitude]; 
    return TRUE;
}

I am running a unit test against it and I it failing giving following exception

2011-10-04 22:58:43.380 navman2[74159:ec03] -[MapViewController isValidCoordinate:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x5e20830

The error is that you did declare newView2 as a TableViewController not a MapViewController (which has that method), change:

TableViewController *newView2 =[[MapViewController alloc] init];

with:

MapViewController *newView2 =[[MapViewController alloc] init];

anyway I would call the variable newViewController rather than newView2 :P
