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

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'',

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`

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

Hi all, I just hit a big wall involving a legacy database. I''ve got an active record class called "School" that uses "set_table_name ''old_school''" to map to a legacy database table: class School < ActiveRecord::Base set_table_name ''old_school'' end It works great, until I''m testing and I want to use fixtures.

Hi, [This is a repost, I can?t find where went my previous post, ] I wanted to create subdirectories in the fixtures directory in order to be able to manage many different initial states for my system (or to sort fixtures / corresponding model subpackages). I came up with the idea of writing: Test::Unit::TestCase.fixture_path = RAILS_ROOT + "/test/fixtures/selling"

I''m using the runt library [1] to do some temporal expression matching. I want to keep the expression in a binary field in my db. I figured that then in order to do the fixtures, I''d need to do some erb in the yaml file. So I came up with this: onetime: id: 1 name: One Time description: This event occurs only one time. timex: <%= REYear.new(7) & REMonth.new(24)

Hello, I have a table of zipcodes that I am using in my application, so there are approximately 50,000 rows in this table. I have dumped the table to a fixture yaml file to represent this data, but when I try to load it, I get this error: SystemStackError: stack level too deep Is there a max size allowed for a fixture file..? Here is the --trace output: rake db:fixtures:load --trace **

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

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:

I have set up some fixtures in test/fixtures/users.xml: # Read about fixtures at http://ar.rubyonrails.org/classes/Fixtures.html admin: id: 1 username: admin password: admin pbarry: id: 2 username: pbarry I have a unit test for my user model: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' class UserTest < Test::Unit::TestCase fixtures :users def

Just released a new version of the _Managed Fixtures_ plugin, previously known as _Export Fixtures_. The name change comes with some added functionality for managing the fixtures, primarily with two new import tasks for importing specific Models or all of them within the test/fixtures directory. Both new import tasks take the exported fixtures, and allow you to directly import one, or all of

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

Hi all. I have a question on accessing fixtures by name. I''m doing integration testing very similar to what is described in Jamis''s excellent writeup at http://jamis.jamisbuck.org/articles/2006/03/09/integration-testing-in-rails-1-1. The problem is that I am using ordered yml fixtures so that rake loads each element in the correct sequence. I need to do this because my

Hi. I''ve come across the following documentation: Note that YAML fixtures are unordered. If you want ordered fixtures, use the omap YAML type. See yaml.org/type/omap.html for the specification. You will need ordered fixtures when you have foreign key constraints on keys in the same table. This is commonly needed for tree structures. Example: --- !omap - parent: id:
