I was surprised to find out that Fixtures are ActiveRecord based, even in Rails 3.0 where integration of other ORMs has become easier. Although I am using factories like Mechanist and FactoryGirl, I still believe that fixtures can be useful: They provide a concise, language independent, easily readable and shareable way to express test data.
So I was wondering if there is any plan to remove that ActiveRecord tie and instead base fixtures on ActiveModel. Or should fixtures be generally regarded as a relict that is soon going to be removed from Rails? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
