Instance Method Details

#load_real_test_data(name, strategy: LoadStrategies::Psql) ⇒ Object

Loads a SQL dump using the given strategy (default: psql shell-out, matching pre-0.5 behavior — data commits outside the caller's transaction). Pass a different strategy to change how the dump is executed, e.g. transactional loading on the ActiveRecord connection:

load_real_test_data("dump", strategy: RealDataTests::LoadStrategies::Native)

Raises:

def load_real_test_data(name, strategy: LoadStrategies::Psql)
  dump_path = File.join(RealDataTests.configuration.dump_path, "#{name}.sql")
  raise Error, "Test data file not found: #{dump_path}" unless File.exist?(dump_path)

  strategy.call(dump_path)
end

#load_real_test_data_native(name) ⇒ Object

Loads a SQL dump on the ActiveRecord connection (LoadStrategies::Native), so the data participates in the caller's transaction (e.g. DatabaseCleaner's :transaction strategy) and rolls back with it. Shorthand for:

load_real_test_data(name, strategy: RealDataTests::LoadStrategies::Native)

Unlike the default psql strategy, this never commits outside the test transaction, but it cannot process psql meta-commands (e.g. \set) and reads the whole dump into memory.
