similar to: db:fixures:load does not call Model.save()

I''m stymied at how to create a fixture that establishes a has_many :through relationship. I''ve watched the railscast at: http://media.railscasts.com/videos/081_fixtures_in_rails_2.mov ... but that''s for HABTM relationships. I''ve read: http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/145676 but that ultimately doesn''t answer any question. So with no further ado:

Hello all, I''m having some issues with my test fixtures and unit tests and am hoping somebody has an idea about how to fix it. Background: I have a table in my legacy database called tp_approval_step. For this table I have a fixture called tp_approval_step.yml I have a model called ApprovalProcessStep that uses set_table_name ''tp_approval_step'' In my test file,

Is there any way I can require a small set of data be in the test database before any tests are run? (unit, functional, integration, cucumber, etc) Any way besides using fixtures, that is. Overload a rake task? Modify test_helper? Any ideas? (Simple Case: I have to have a minimal set of user roles defined before any users can be created) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to

Hey Everyone, I have a function test the is failing (despite the fact the function actually works in the application). I was looking for some debug advice on how to find my problem.

Hi, At the minute all my fixtures have the same name as the table that they are intended for, because of a recent issue with rails it doesn''t seem possible to have a fixture beginning with the word ''test'' Does anyone know of a way to have a different fixture name and then map it to the correct table?

Hello, Hope no one minds me just jumping in here with a question. I''m completely new to Ruby on Rails. I''ve been reading "Simply Rails 2", and following their examples. I reached a point where the unit tests were unexpectedly failing. Upon investigation, I discovered that when Rails loads the fixtures, the foreign keys aren''t being populated with the foreign

I am working my way through Agile web development with rails and I''m in the testing chapter. when I run the following test(or any other test) I''m new and not sure where to start looking. require ''test_helper'' class ProductTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase # Replace this with your real tests. test "the truth" do assert true end end I

A lot has been posted about validation issues with associations, however, I don''t see this issue addressed specifically. ex: class Foo has_one :schedule, :dependent => :destroy validates_presence_of :schedule class Schedule belongs_to :foo validates_presence_of :foo_id this creates a circular dependency that breaks test frameworks like pickle and machinist. At first I was

Hey, What way is the best to do imports of CSV files?

hello, I''ve already asked via Rails channels on this and have received no response, so I''m asking here in hopes someone has run into something similar. I updated to rails 2.3.3 yesterday, and now all of my specs are failing with the following error: Fixture::FormatError in ''PublishedGallery Methods#thumbnail should delegate to its lead asset'' a YAML error

Is there a way to preload common data made by factory_girl to speed up tests instead of recreating these common data at the beginning of every test. For example, I want to have 10 users premade at the beginning of every test. I found this http://agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/factory_data_preloader But the page says that this plugin does not "play nice" with autotest. But I use

Hello, I''ve got a got a question about how and where to load initial data that is necessary in order to make the website work (menu structure, page contents, ...) I know it''s preference and everybody can do it as s/he wants but I just wanna know if there''s any convention or something like that. First of all, how do I normally load necessary data as mentioned above?

I''m trying to display a drop-down menu by using an instance variable from a model. THIS WORKS... <div class="field"> <%= f.label :duration %><br /> <%= f.select ("duration", {"30 minutes" => "30", "1 hour" => "60"}, :prompt => "Select") %> </div> THIS DOESN''T

... ok, I may be going about this the wrong way, or perhaps, a less efficient way than is optimal, but I would like to test a little bit of AJAX on one of my web pages. When I test this by hand, I bring up the page which shows a select box, I select an item from the drop down list, see another select box show up, go back to the first select box, select a different item, and see something

Here''s my issue: running ruby -I test test/unit/something_test.rb for each of my unit tests works perfectly. However, running rake test:units brings errors in all of them - some object becomes nil for some reason. Why might this be happening? Specifics: the object that is successfully not nil when I run the unit tests one-by-one but becomes nil when I do rake test:units is defined like

Hi all I''m moving to using Machinist in my rspec tests and am having a problem with an after_create callback method that i need to stub out. It seems like calling ClassName.make will trigger this callback before i''ve had the chance to stub it. Can i stub it in my blueprint for that class? Or, can i stub the method for all instances of the class before i call ClassName.make?
