Why isn't factory_girl operating transactionally for me? - rows remain in database after tests

Question

I\'m trying to use factory_girl to create a \"user\" factory (with RSpec) however it doesn\'t seem to be operating transactionally and is apparently failing because of remna

Answer 1

I ran into these same symptoms when upgrading a project from Rails 3 to Rails 4. I had done a bundle install, and development mode seemed to be working fine, but I wouldn't get transactional behavior in tests. It turns out doing a bundle update solved the problem.
