I use seed_fu with cucumber.
http://github.com/mbleigh/seed-fu/tree
To load them I use the following my features/steps/env.rb. I reload
them for every scenarios:
Before do
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(ActiveRecord::Base.configurations['test'])
ActiveRecord::Schema.verbose = false
load "#{RAILS_ROOT}/db/schema.rb"
Dir[File.join(RAILS_ROOT, "features/fixtures", '*.rb')].sort.each {
|fixture| load fixture }
end
My fixture files live in features/fixtures/ and each looks like:
# my_model.rb
MyModel.transaction do
MyModel.seed_many(:id, [
{ :name => "blah", :id => 1 },
{ :name => "foo", :id => 2
])
end
I use seed_fu for seeding production data as well. I don't use it in
the sense of Rails fixtures. I use it in the sense of "the app needs
this data to even run, period." Seems maybe this is what you're
looking for,
Zach
