There's another approach though that I haven't tried yet. One of the
guys I work with truncates all the tables in the db before every

which
means that if he actually DOES use a transaction in his
application code
then he can test it very easily. I've not tried it, but it seems
like a
cool idea.
We have a few lines of code in our features steps/env.rb that does this
1. patch AR to stash each AR object created in an array
2. in an After do block, call destroy on each of those objects.
We can probably share if anyone would like to see this.
cheers,
