similar to: Problems generating a model with a namespace

I want to organize my fixtures just like the namespace of my models. So for example if I have a model Company::Employee I''d like the fixture to be in fixtures/company/employees.yml. However, I can''t figure out how to specify the path of the fixture file. If I do: fixtures :employees in my unit test it can''t find the fixture file. Any suggestions? Thanks, Todd

I have a very simple problem. I can''t seem to access a the fixture by name I have a sites.yml with: simple_site: id: 1 name: demo description: A demo site created_on: 2005-10-25 00:00:00 updated_on: 2005-10-25 00:00:00 And I have a test class as: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' class SiteTest < Test::Unit::TestCase fixtures

Heya, I''m using globalize2 and have following problem with my fixtures: categories.yml: one: parent_id: two color: #ff00aa two: color: #00ff11 three: parent_id: two color: #ab00ab category_translations.yml one-en: id: one locale: en name: Cars one-es: id: one locale: es name: Coches two-en: id: two locale: en name: Start two-es: id: two locale: es

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

Sorry about the very long email, but this is a hairy topic that''s been annoying me for some time and I decided to try to do something about. Also, if you got this twice, I apologize too, but it didn''t seem to have successfully gone out the first time. Background: ---------- I''ve been dealing with Rails for about a year and a half now. I''ve been using

OK, I know I''m doing something bone-headed, but I can''t for the life of me figure it out. I''ve read the test fixtures Rdoc about eight dozen times, and it says (to me) that if I have a YAML fixture file, dogs.yml that looks like this: fido: id: 1 breed: Terrier fifi: id: 2 breed: Poodle Then I can include fixtures :dogs in my functional test, and

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

OK, we all know that Rails turned off instantiated fixtures by default in 1.0. That''s not a problem. However, what I''m now wondering is how to access the raw fixture data out of the YML file (as opposed to the database.) Mainly, for comparing my database results with my expected results in a DRY way. The book says if you have the command "fixtures :foo", that

I''m working with a legacy postgresql database where the names of tables, columns, etc., do not usually follow Rails conventions. I''ve been able to work around it for the most part, but I ran into this: I have the following test: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' class SponsorTest < Test::Unit::TestCase self.use_transactional_fixtures =

Hello again! ok, i have some initial migration code which sets up my apps schema. i have a few tables that get initialized with data in this migration where i have the table data in yaml format in test/fixtures. i use db:fixtures:load FIXTURES=countries,provstates,employees to initialize these tables.. here''s the wrinkle: employees when it gets loaded should only contain the admin

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 fairly new to Rails, and I''ve been learning from AGILE WEB DEVELOPMENT WITH RAILS. Everything has been going smoothly until the chapter on Unit Testing, where I''m getting some strange errors. I''m up to page 141 in the Agile book, and attempting to run the test program containing the method test_read_with_hash. The previous tests work properly, but I

I can''t get fixtures to load correctly in a Mosquito test. The first fixture loads in the unit test, but the rest don''t load at all. File structure: tracker/ tracker.rb test/ test_tracker.rb fixtures/ tracker_measurements.yml tracker_projects.yml Relevant test code: require ''rubygems''

Hi everyone! I have a question: what is the preferred way (in terms of simplicity) to test models with single table inheritance. Right now I have 1 test case and 1 fixture for all of the STI models, but it''s very hard to maintain it (too many tests and records in fixture). It would be better if fixtures could be named separately from DB tables. I know, Engines plugin has

Hello All, I am experiencing the following test unit error working with Rails that I can''t fathom. I have a products.yml file which holds the following test fixture for the products table: dell_pc: id: 1 title: Dell PC description: Dell PC image_url: http://.../pc_image.jpg price: 15000.00 date_available: 2005-12-31 06:53:00 I also have the following product_test.rb file to

Hello, I am using rails 1.0 and I have following questions. Please help me. [1] How can I do logging in the rails models? I checked the wiki but didn''t find anything which I explained how to do logging in models. [2] Say I have a certain model, when I declare a function in the model, and try to use that function from a view or a unit test, I get an error. For views the error occurs

This is Rails 2.0.2 I have two yaml fixture files, both loading into ARs with acts_as_tree, so they both have the !!omap directive set. One, categories.yml, loads just fine. The other goes very weird, somehow fixtures.rb opens the file, reads "name: All" from the first record, and then tries to open a file called "All", which then fails miserably on line . I can''t

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:

Just released a very simple plugin for including all fixtures in your tests. Once you have a large number of table, manually managing the fixtures for every single test stub can be quite tedious. Use as follows class BlogArticleTest < Test::Unit::TestCase all_fixtures def test_foo ... end end Couldn''t be easier. More info here:

All, I''ve been playing a bit with some patches to make the fixture loading and management code a little bit easier to maintain. If I were to start chopping out features, how would you feel about losing: Fixture instantiation, Old school single-file fixtures, CSV fixtures, The ability to specify a subset of fixtures (everything''s always loaded instead), The ability to
