# In most cases, Rails' own plugin testing mechanisms are sufficient. However, there
|
|
# are cases where plugins can be given a helping hand in the testing arena. This module
|
|
# contains some methods to assist when testing plugins that contain fixtures.
|
|
#
|
|
# == Fixtures and plugins
|
|
#
|
|
# Since Rails' own fixtures method is fairly strict about where files can be loaded from,
|
|
# the simplest approach when running plugin tests with fixtures is to simply copy all
|
|
# fixtures into a single temporary location and inform the standard Rails mechanism to
|
|
# use this directory, rather than RAILS_ROOT/test/fixtures.
|
|
#
|
|
# The Engines::Testing#setup_plugin_fixtures method does this, copying all plugin fixtures
|
|
# into the temporary location before and tests are performed. This behaviour is invoked
|
|
# the the rake tasks provided by the Engines plugin, in the "test:plugins" namespace. If
|
|
# necessary, you can invoke the task manually.
|
|
#
|
|
# If you wish to take advantage of this, add a call to the Engines::Testing.set_fixture_path
|
|
# method somewhere before your tests (in a test_helper file, or above the TestCase itself).
|
|
#
|
|
# = Testing plugins
|
|
#
|
|
# Normally testing a plugin will require that Rails is loaded, unless you are including
|
|
# a skeleton Rails environment or set of mocks within your plugin tests. If you require
|
|
# the Rails environment to be started, you must ensure that this actually happens; while
|
|
# it's not obvious, your tests do not automatically run with Rails loaded.
|
|
#
|
|
# The simplest way to setup plugin tests is to include a test helper with the following
|
|
# contents:
|
|
#
|
|
# # Load the normal Rails helper. This ensures the environment is loaded
|
|
# require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../../../../test/test_helper')
|
|
# # Ensure that we are using the temporary fixture path
|
|
# Engines::Testing.set_fixture_path
|
|
#
|
|
# Then run tests using the provided tasks (<tt>test:plugins</tt>, or the tasks that the engines
|
|
# plugin provides - <tt>test:plugins:units</tt>, etc.).
|
|
#
|
|
# Alternatively, you can explicitly load the environment by adpating the contents of the
|
|
# default <tt>test_helper</tt>:
|
|
#
|
|
# ENV["RAILS_ENV"] = "test"
|
|
# # Note that we are requiring config/environment from the root of the enclosing application.
|
|
# require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/../../../../config/environment")
|
|
# require 'test_help'

|
|
# of precedence, meaning that plugins can 'overwrite' the fixtures of others if they are
|
|
# loaded later; the application's fixtures are copied last, allowing any custom fixtures
