factory_girl [![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/thoughtbot/factory_girl_rails.png)](http://travis-ci.org/thoughtbot/factory_girl_rails?branch=master)
============
`factory_girl` is a fixtures replacement with a straightforward definition
syntax, support for multiple build strategies (saved instances, unsaved
instances, attribute hashes, and stubbed objects), and support for multiple
factories for the same class (`user`, `admin_user`, and so on), including factory
inheritance.
Rails
-----
`factory_girl_rails` provides Rails integration for `factory_girl`.
Currently, automatic factory definition loading is the only Rails-specific feature.
Supported Rails versions are listed in [`Appraisals`](Appraisals). Supported
Ruby versions are listed in [`.travis.yml`](.travis.yml).
Download
--------
Github: http://github.com/thoughtbot/factory_girl_rails/tree/master
Gem:
gem install factory_girl_rails
Configuration
-------------
Add `factory_girl_rails` to your Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'factory_girl_rails'
```
Generators for factories will automatically substitute fixture (and maybe any other
`fixture_replacement` you set). If you want to disable this feature, add the
following to your application.rb file:
```ruby
config.generators do |g|
g.factory_girl false
end
```
Default factories directory is `test/factories`, or `spec/factories` if
`test_framework` generator is set to `:rspec`; change this behavior with:
```ruby
config.generators do |g|
g.factory_girl dir: 'custom/dir/for/factories'
end
```
If you use `factory_girl` for fixture replacement, ensure that
`factory_girl_rails` is available in the development group. If it's not, Rails
will generate standard yml files instead of factory files.
`factory_girl` takes an option `suffix: 'some_suffix'`
to generate factories as "modelname_some_suffix.rb"
