Undefined method for value when running rspec tests

I am getting a undefined method for 'value' when running my rspec test. I am trying to get the value column in the Votes table for the respective post instance variable being ran in the rspec test. Am I calling the value wrong?

Up_votes function description:

The function is supposed to add to the array if the value of the vote is 1 and doesn't add it, if it is -1. Once that loop is completed, then it is supposed to sum the total number of votes(up votes) in that array.

Rspec error:

Failures:

1) Post vote methods #up_votes counts the number of votes with value = 1
 Failure/Error: expect(@post.up_votes ).to eq(3)
 NoMethodError:
   undefined method `value' for #<Vote::ActiveRecord_Associations_CollectionProxy:0x007ff2e1621728>
 # ./app/models/post.rb:29:in `up_votes'
 # ./spec/models/post_spec.rb:14:in `block (4 levels) in <top      (required)>'

Rspec test:

require 'rails_helper'

describe Post do
describe "vote methods" do

before do
  @post = Post.create(title: 'Post title', body: 'Post bodies must be pretty long.')
  3.times { @post.votes.create(value: 1)}
  2.times { @post.votes.create(value: -1)}
end

describe '#up_votes' do
  it "counts the number of votes with value = 1" do
    expect(@post.up_votes ).to eq(3)
  end
end

describe '#down_votes' do
  it "counts the number of votes with values = -1" do
    expect(@post.down_votes ).to eq(2)
  end
end

describe '#points' do
  it "returns the sum of all down and up votes" do
    expect(@post.points ).to eq(1) # 3 - 2
  end
end
end
end 

Post.rb:

belongs_to :topic

default_scope {order('created_at DESC')}

  vote_catch = vote_array

 end 
  vote_catch.each do |vote|
  sum += vote

   sum
