Description of problem: - I've setup factory_girl_rails however whenever I try and load a factory it's trying to load it multiple times. Environment: - rails (3.2.1) - factory_girl (2.5.2) - factory_girl_rails (1.6.0) - ruby-1.9.3-p0 [ x86_64 ] > rake spec --trace ** Execute environment -- Creating User Factory -- Creating User Factory rake aborted! Factory already registered: user The only other thing I've changed is: /config/initializers/generator.rb Rails.application.config.generators do |g| g.test_framework = :rspec g.fixture_replacement :factory_girl end GEMFILE gem 'rails', '3.2.1' #

My controller spec fails because Factory Girl seems to be creating non-unique Users even though I sequence the User attributes that need to be unique. The Errors 1) TopicsController POST #create when topic is invalid should render new Failure/Error: let(:invalid_topic) {Factory.build :invalid_topic} ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid:Validation failed: Email has already been taken, Username has already been taken 2) TopicsController POST #create when topic is valid should redirect to show Failure/Error: let(:valid_topic) {Factory.build :topic} ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid: Validation failed: Email has

I'm building a setup screen for billing of individuals. The controller/views are in the Admin namespace. When run the first test without :js => true I get one failure, which I assume is down to the fact that the link does not work as its a helper which uses a js script to build a nested set of fields (Based on Railscasts Single form, multiple tables - Nested Attributes). Failures: 1) Patient Setup create patient bill heading - with extended details -with valid data Failure/Error: fill_in "Extended Bill Heading", :with => 'Regular Registration' Capybara::ElementNotFound: cannot fill in, no text

This has been causing some frustration recently... It seems that using Factories in my cucumber tests, in some situations causes AssociationTypeMismatch errors such as: MyModel(#65776650) expected, got MyModel(#28190030) (ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch) These seem to happen when there is an association reference - as if the Factory created object is different to the real one. See this question for more details: Cucumber duplicate class problem: AssociationTypeMismatch I have been gradually changing Factory calls to real Model.create or mock_model calls. It would be nice to keep using

I recently upgraded to Rails 4 and everything works fine except for my Rspec tests. require 'spec_helper' describe Invoice do before :each do @user = FactoryGirl.create(:activated_user) person = FactoryGirl.create(:person, :user => @user, :company => nil) @project = FactoryGirl.create(:project, :user => @user, :person_ids => [person.id], :invoice_recipient_id => person.id) end it "has a valid factory" do expect(FactoryGirl.build(:invoice, :project => @project, :user => @user)).to be_valid end it "is invalid without a number" do expect(FactoryGirl.build(:invoice, :project => @project, :user =>

I'm working with factory_girl, but looking at the machinist gem. Could you tell me please - what are the pros and cons of migrating to machinist? Have you compared those libs? Ryan McGeary Machinist was actually heavily inspired by factory_girl , but varied because machinist's author wanted a different syntax. Since then, factory_girl added different syntax layers to simulate other factory libraries (including machinist's "blueprint" syntax). In other words, both are extremely similar, just with a different default syntax. Personally, I use factory_girl. MetalElf0 Actually, Machinist has a big
