I can't believe I did that...
No, there is only one Factory; copy and paste error. The SeasonDate
class is:
class SeasonDate < ActiveRecord::Base
  def self.find_start_record
    where(["date_type = ?", "start_date"]).first
  end
end
Agreed regarding the redundant test - I just put that in when things
went wrong.
Thanks for responding
