Re: Test Suite: parsing a CSV file, where to store file?
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_fixture " --Examples of fixtures: * loading a database with a specific, known set of data * erasing a hard disk and installing a known clean operating system installation * copying a specific known set of files * preparation of input data and setup/creation of fake or mock objects " I would also put it in fixture folder. I wouldn't put it out side of tests/ folder (one should keep everything in one place ;) You can also create a seperate folder in the tests dir... -- Marcin Domanski http://kabturek.info On Wed, Jul 16, 2008 at 3:18 AM, aranworld <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Thanks.

Re: Test Suite: parsing a CSV file, where to store file?
Thanks. I just knew there had to be some conflicting opinions on this. A webroot/files/tests directory maybe makes some sense? tmp seems wierd, because the file shouldn't get deleted. -Aran On Jul 15, 2:47 pm, "Renan Gonçalves" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Fixtures are for Model tests. > I think a "more standard place" to put the CSV file is on temporary > directory (/tmp) or on a webroot/files directory. > > []'s > > On Mon, Jul 14, 2008 at 10:35 PM, Grant Cox <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I do the same, and keep the file in fixtures.

Re: Test Suite: parsing a CSV file, where to store file?
Fixtures are for Model tests. I think a "more standard place" to put the CSV file is on temporary directory (/tmp) or on a webroot/files directory.

Re: Test Suite: parsing a CSV file, where to store file?
I do the same, and keep the file in fixtures. Makes sense to me :) On Jul 15, 8:33 am, aranworld <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I need to create a test case for the parsing of a tab delimited file. > Would it make sense to put the test version of this CSV file in the > fixtures directory of my test suite?
