NewspaperWorksFixtures

This project contains very little code, but provides a set of fixture files under version control to facilitate testing of ingest workflows for newspaper_works, or for other digitized newspaper content workflows in general.

Installation

Add NewspaperWorksFixtures to your Gemfile, preferably only as a test or development dependency:

group :development, :test do
  gem 'newspaper_works_fixtures', :git => 'https://github.com/marriott-library/newspaper_works_fixtures'
end

Then run bundle install.

Once the gem is installed, you will be able to access the paths to the fixtures by calling methods on the base NewspaperWorksFixtures class, as in:

2.4.1 :001 > NewspaperWorksFixtures.file_fixtures
 => "/path/to/newspaper_works_fixtures/spec/fixtures/files"
