Here is my usecase, in ecto_fixtures you can declar via macros the fixture
state to bring into each test:
fixture :employee_1
context :admin
serialize true
test "foo bar", %{data: data} do
...
end
Quite often the entire test module would be asserting within an admin
context. It would be great to do something like:
context :admin
describe "Admin" do
fixture :employee_
serialize true
test "foo bar", %{data: data} do
...
end
fixture :employee_2
test "foo bar", %{data: data} do
...
end
end
