== Defining factories
# This will guess the User class
Factory.define :user do |u|
u.first_name 'John'
u.last_name 'Doe'
u.admin false
end
# This will use the User class (Admin would have been guessed)
Factory.define :admin, :class => User do |u|
u.first_name 'Admin'
u.last_name 'User'
u.admin true
end
It is recommended that you create a test/factories.rb file and define your
factories there. This file can be included from test_helper or directly from
your test files. Don't forget:
require 'factory_girl'
== Using factories
# Build and save a User instance
Factory(:user)
# Build a User instance and override the first_name property
Factory.build(:user, :first_name => 'Joe')
# Return an attributes Hash that can be used to build a User instance
attrs = Factory.attributes_for(:user)
