erm, IMO this is a case for some programattic record creation in your
actual test helper.
%w( apple orange banana ).each { |fruit| Fruit.create(:name => fruit) }
my fixtures tend to be named after their function, so
invalid_name:
name: Joe'"; DROP TABLE users
id: 4
address: 1 Main St, ..
email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
missing_email:
name: Joe
id: 5
etc.
