For the development database rake db:drop rake db:create rake db:migrate rake db:seed For the test database RAILS_ENV=test rake db:drop RAILS_ENV=test rake db:create RAILS_ENV=test rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=test rake db:seed guard # Spork for RSpec This works well as a set-up for rspec (and with static seeded data, e.g. list of countries etc. available also for the tests). Maybe not optimal, but works well. Alternatively, if you do not want to restart from scratch, just deleting all users could be done with rails console > User.delete_all RAILS_ENV=test rails console > User.delete_all Peter -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
