similar to: functional tests run fine on their own but fail with rake

I''d like to test against a very large dataset - is there anyway to prevent the data in the test database being destroyed on each test run? storing the dataset in fixtures causes the tests to take several minutes to complete, even using csv fixtures, and that''s just for one test case! I''d appreciate any suggestions on how to preserve the data in the test database

I''m having (to me) a strange problem with errors when running my tests with rake as opposed to using ruby. If I do rake test:units I get this error for several tests, but not all: 13) Error: test_player_has_game_statistics_for_season(PlayerSeasonTest): ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: Mysql::Error: Duplicate entry ''22'' for key 1: INSERT INTO positions (`name`, `id`,

Hi there, So I have an odd error at the moment that only occurs when I run tests via rake. It''s happening with two tests now. Under a simple ruby run, the tests are fine, e.g.: D:\User\Code\ruby\prometheus>ruby test\functional\story_comments_controller_test .rb Loaded suite test/functional/story_comments_controller_test Started ......... Finished in 2.37 seconds. 9 tests, 65

I have lots of tests which rely on fixtures being a particular state in order to pass. For example, one test checks that a User object can have no more than 3 associated ''Page'' objects at a time. That''s a simple example but I have more complicated tests too. The problem is I sometimes add a fixture without realising it''ll affect the tests and everything

I have the following in my functional test file. class UserControllerTest < ActionController::TestCase fixtures :users def setup @controller = UserController.new @request = ActionController::TestRequest.new @response = ActionController::TestResponse.new @invalid_user = user(:invalid_user) @valid_user = users(:valid_user) end def test_login_success

For testing, I use: self.use_transactional_fixtures = true This should cause a ROLLBACK for each test case. If I run a single file, foo_controller_test.rb, it works as expected. I see BEGIN and ROLLBACK 8 times in the log files. But if I run: rake test:functionals I get 3 COMMITs, 196 BEGINS and 193 ROLLBACKs. The code in fixtures.rb that deals with this is : def

Hi, I''m new to rspec. I have some fixtures in /spec/fixtures. If they were in /test/fixtures they could be loaded with rake db:fixtures:load. Is there any way other than a symlink to load my rspec fixtures into the database with rake? Or, can I cause rspec to load the fixtures from /test/fixtures? Thanks, Paul

Subject says it all: rake doesn''t know about db:fixtures:dump. When I try, I get this: Don''t know how to build task ''db:fixtures:dump'' I thought this was a standard feature that ships with rake- any idea why it''s missing, and how I can reinstall it? Here''s the environment: Ruby version 1.8.4 (powerpc-darwin8.6.0) RubyGems

I''m running Rails 3 and I''m trying to populate a table using rake db:fixtures:load, and I''m getting a "Could not find" file error. The table is called stores, and I''ve confirmed that it exists, and the data is in stores.yml in my test/fixtures directory. The command I''m running is rake db:fixtures:load FIXTURES=stores. The error message

Hello, I have recently upgraded to the 0.8.2 release of rSpec, and I am receiving the following message with each view spec execution: WARNING: there is no transaction in progress I have upgraded the rspec_on_rails plugin as well, and both the model and controller tests are working flawlessly. Is there some simple step I missed? thanks for the input. -Chris -------------- next part

I''ve got a spec that loads a fixture in the "before" block. This works fine running scripts/spec, but when I run rake spec instead, I get: ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in ''User in fixture :quentin with an IM service but no IM name should be invalid'' Mysql::Error: Cannot delete or update a parent row: a foreign key constraint fails

Hi all, This testing problem has been a sink for time today, and is still unresolved. Basically I have some unit tests that test simple functions (example below) that depend on join operations in a habtm relationship, and I suspect I am getting "false" failures, i.e ones that do not logically make any sense. I need fresh sets of eyes to take a look and see if I''m mising

Hello All, If I run my unit tests individually using Ruby, they all work correctly. However, if I try to run them using "rake test_units", I get a bunch of error messages. The error messages appear to be caused by rake not loading any of the fixtures into the test database. I am using PostgreSQL on Windows. Does anyone have any suggestions? Many thanks, Bruce. -- Posted via

Hi (I''m resubmitting this because First question: This is the rails dev list, correct? I''d like to submit a patch and am following the steps on this page: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ Here''s what I did (using mysql 5.0.15-nt): created 2 databases: activerecord_unittest activerecord_unittest2 created 1 user: rails (giving all priveleges to both databases) ran

I am attempting to do selective fixture loading against my test database. When I run rake db:fixtures:load FIXTURES=DataSetInfo I get no output. (A full trace is below). I''m trying to figure out why nothing happens. 1) Does the command above attempt to operate against my test database? 2) DataSetInfo is the name of my table and the name of my yml file I generated these YAML

I''m getting some very weird results when testing my system. If I run my unit tests using => ruby \test\unit\<filename.rb> each of the tests pass. If I run => rake test_units I get several failures, and they all have to deal with the same issue. For instance I''m getting => ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: RuntimeError: ERROR C42P01 Mrelation

Hi, I''m having a problem loading a sample data with simple rake command. rake db:fixtures:load When I run the above command,I get the following error $rake db:fixtures:load (in /home/raghu/www/photos) rake aborted! a YAML error occurred parsing /home/raghu/www/photos/test/fixtures/photos.yml. Please note that YAML must be consistently indented using spaces. Tabs are not allowed. Please

Does anyone know how to extend the buit-in rake tasks like test:unit. I want to custom load some fixtures in a particular order. Thanks, Zack

Hi all, I''m having a bit of a problem with unit testing. I''ve simplified my models to try and get my head round it but I''m still struggling. I''m using STI and trying to write tests for the extended models (code below). I''ve written test cases for the extended models which themselves extend the test case for the parent model, so BarTest extends

Hi, I have a problem with my Samba/WinBIND implementation. In folders shared by multiple people the last one to access and modify a file takes ownership of the file and changes the permissions so other users cannot make changes to the same file: [root@atlas PLANNING RECORDS]# cd REGIONAL\ 1\ AIRLINE\ DOCS/ [root@atlas REGIONAL 1 AIRLINE DOCS]# ls -al total 1232 drwxrws---+ 8 root
