Fixture data is automatically loaded before each test run. Any data or
structure in your existing test database will be deleted or dropped and
replaced with only the relevant fixture data. From you linked Github issue
it looks like you have some other issue with either you tests or code
that's causing an error and the usual fixture drop/recreate/fill workflow
is failing.

Hi all
I'm writing hereu to understand well cakephp tests.
I mean about this issue:
https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/issues/5693#issuecomment-70532382
So my question is:
How to make good tests?
Because in cakephp documentation isn't exaplained well I think or I
haven't understand well the correct iter.
What I have always done:
- Created default database
- Created test database
- Populated the default database
- Exported all database and imported into the tests database with all
records
- Started to create test
- Created fixtures with declarations of fields and records
- Created tests model that load fixtures.
I thinked that when I'm starting to test when the framework load fixtures
delete the table of the fixtures and redraw it with field and records.
Is wrong right?
Database table are dropped after tests I have read
Ok, so what is the good way to insert my records into database tests?
Repopulate the database tests from phpmyadmin for example?
But in this way what is the purpose of the $records array in fixtures?
I would like to know the best practice to create a great workflow for tests
Thanks
