Hi all,
So my potentially crazy but I think good idea right now is to take
the factory_girl gem and adapt it to generate stubbed models instead
of actual ActiveRecord objects that get saved to the DB. My main
reasoning there is that I like the syntax they've set up and some of
the tools under the hood to deal with associations, etc, but I want
to be disconnected from the database.
However, for mocking my ActiveRecord objects right now (in a rails
project) I'm using mock_model from rspec-rails a lot, and I would
love to use that in this code too. But I'm hitting a few walls
including the methods into a separate class. So far I've got this:
class Factory
include Spec::Mocks
include Spec::Mocks::Methods
include Spec::Rails::Mocks
def create_stubbed(attrs = {})
model = mock_model(build_class)
end
....
I'm getting a method missing on the method "stub" however, so I feel
like somehow I'm not including the right stuff, or maybe I should be
extending some things, not quite sure. (And yes, that's the method
"stub", not "stub!")
Any advice would be awesome, thanks!
Are you requiring "spec/mocks" or "spec/mocks/mock" (I forget which
one it is, at the moment).
Try doing it through irb, requiring the appropriate spec/mocks*.rb
file, and including the module.
