I think most nowadays think that factories are the best way of testing, using something like factory_girl. I think the free-to-use-online tutorial railstutorial.org uses factories for testing. That is a good tutorial anyway and well worth working through. If you don't want to use factories you should use fixtures for populating the test database. I think the Rails Guide on testing covers this. Then rails will automatically reset the test database for each test. I would expect any good tutorial on rails to either use factories or fixtures.
