Cucumberists:
Apologies for not jumping into some wild alternate fixture (or mock!) system,
but the unit tests at my new day gig are >cough< hanging by a thread as it is.
I need to show off some cute Cuke, _without_ rocking the boat!
How do I actually use real, pre-existing Rails fixtures, the same as the unit
tests use? For familiarity?
Putting this at the top of the step.rb seems just a leeettle bit tacky...
$fixtures_installed ||= (
ENV['RAILS_ENV'] = 'test'
RAILS_ENV.replace('test')
system('rake db:fixtures:load') )
I have attempted to load Rails Fixtures on demand before, and I'm the first to
admit their architecture sucks - loading them on demand ain't pretty!
And exactly why was 'rake features' running in RAILS_ENV=development mode? Do
developers _like_ having their scratch database screwed up each time they run
fixtures? Enquiring minds want to know!
