similar to: Flexible Fixtures patch -- anyone have an offline copy?

I am working with a legacy database that does not always follow the conventions for table names, primary key and foreign key column names, and join table names. This is no problem in my application code because Rails allows me to override the defaults. However it is making unit testing next to impossible because fixtures will still try and insert data into the wrong tables. Changing the

Hi Everyone, I''m a newbie to Rails, and I just finished going through the cookbook tutorial. I''m now trying to build my own application, and I''m trying to add more inputs to the edit view to modify data in other tables. Below is the controller code where I am having trouble. PartsLocation is another table (like Part) in the database, and that is the line where

Is there a way to use table name other than the default or to turn it around have multiple fixture files associated to the same table. Here''s my use case: I have multiple unit test classes that all work with the same model class and hence the same database table. However, for each test class I want the data to be in a different state. So I''d like to have something like class

Hello all, I have a fixture under folder-grouping : ./fixtures/foo/bars.yml I need to reference the data in bars during functional test. methods.sort reveals ''foo/bars'' as a method in the current context (breakpointed), but I don''t know how to reference a method called ''foo/bars''. - OR - how should i reference the fixture when I''m using

I''m starting to write some rather intricate billing logic, the test data for which will almost certainly overwhelm my standard set of test fixtures, leading to a test maintenance nightmare. I''d like to be able to specify that some test classes load their fixtures from a different location, but I can''t seem to get it to work. I did see this post from last December:

Hello All, I need to stub two class methods before a selenium call. The .rsel is : require ''mocha'' SalesConfigWork.stubs(:load_work_data) SalesConfigWork.stubs(:delete_work_data) setup :fixtures => :sales_config_works open "/" The Selenium test runner result is : undefined method `stubs'' for SalesConfigWork:Class Extracted source (around line *#0*):

Hello all, I realize this is off-topic for purely rails. My net admin has installed a new firewall, and is now implementing tight lockdown of net access. Thusly, I have lost svn and gems downoads (and plugins as well I believe) until I can give him specifics on what to "allow" for these. Can someone tell me what protocols/content-types/suffixes should be allowed on the firewall to

I''m finally getting beyond using basic test fixtures, and a few questions have popped up. Has anyone found ways to do these? 1. Use a test fixture that is named differently from its table name? We''d like to have more than one possible fixture per table. (Or perhaps use test fixtures named similarly but in different directories.) 2. Load a test fixture for one test method only

Hello All, I am top-posting this in hopes of increasing the visibility. This ticket has not been touched : Default Logger instance has no formatting <http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/3144> For my installation, this is a BIG problem in my production logging !! For now the workaround below is working, and the double-declaration warnings of loading ''logger.rb'' twice are

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

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

Hello all, I have two comboboxen, comboA is popultaed when :controller/list is retrieved first time. When comboA is selected, I want to auto-populate comboB (modelB belongs_to modelA). The population of tableC (modelC belongs_to modelB and belongs_to modelA) should not populate until a "GO" button is clicked (link_to with submit). Help? I need an example of how to filter the post

Hello, i am trying to fix the code for fixtures in rails because it is buggy and internal variable names are confusing, could somebody please explain to me what is the intended purpose of Fixture and Fixtures classes respectively? For example, why do we need both `Fixtures.initialize`and `Fixture.initialize`? They both "initialize" a single fixture, and in fact `Fixture.initialize`

How are you guys handling threads or server processes that have to, for example, process the data in your application on a periodic basis? Cron jobs can do it and then run on the database. But, are there ways to launch threads within the rails application itself. I have heard of WebBrick ways, but I am working with lighttpd, fastcgi? (textdrive if you are really interested).

I have a bunch of fixtures designed to populate the database for my Cucumber integration tests. But at this stage I want my database to be empty when using Rspec. So, I moved the fixtures from `/spec/fixtures` to `features/support/fixtures`, and updated `features/support/env.rb` to read: Fixtures.reset_cache fixtures_folder = File.join(RAILS_ROOT, ''features'',

I am running into some issues with my functional tests because they need info from almost every single table in the database. I have long laundry lists of fixture names to include on these test files and then I have to troubleshooot bizarre test failures because of a fixture that was not included. So is there a way to simply include all fixtures in a test? Something like: fixtures :all

Hi! I am quite new to BDD and I just wrote my first tests. Suddenly I received unexpected results because in a model test I load only users-fixtures but when the views-fixtures in which I load the posts-fixtures, are run before this model-test, the posts-fixtures are loaded too. I test for example if there is one record in the posts-table after creating one post. But when there are fixtures
