I setup my testing to use minitest by following the following railscast plus i added miniskirt for Factories. http://railscasts.com/episodes/327-minitest-with-rails everything works well, but there has to be a cleaner way of testing failed validations. would i be better off using something besides

Hi I''m building a small library to use in my Rails app which interacts with a 3rd party API. It fetches artists and tracks. So I have: lib/my_lib.rb lib/my_lib/artist.rb lib/my_lib/track.rb To get an artist I do artist = MyLib::Artist.find("Oasis") Which returns an instance of Artist if it finds (via 3rd party API) it or nil otherwise. Then I can call artist.tracks which

Morning All! Some things I noticed while playing with 3.1 master last night. 1) When using the #create! method on an association and pass "nil" vs an empty hash, now fails silently with no warning or anything. It''s almost like a no-op. I did not test to see if this behavior occurred on a basic model or not. My app''s controller was setup in such a way that I would

I''ve seen a few examples of dummy Rails apps (for testing, so they live under test or spec dirs, typically) for use with the Appraisals gem that supposedly work with both Rails 3.x and Rails 4, but they seem hackish and not fully functional. It is somewhat expected, as it is a stripped down Frankenstein monster that is trying to be compatible with various versions of Rails 3 as well

Hey, I updated some Gems and now rspec seems to be broken.

I am working on my first Rails BDD project with extensive tests since starting out with Rails a few years ago. Running RSpec or Cucumber is really slow. I''m using Rails 3 and RSpec 2. To run one model spec with only 5 tests takes almost 1 minute! When it finishes it says it took only 0.9 seconds to run the actual test. So obviously it is loading the environment that takes so long. I just

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
