Question

I have 2 models – User and Teacher. Teacher belongs_to User, User has Teacher.

So, i use Factory girl gem:

Factory.define :user do |user|
  user.user_login "Another User"
  user.user_role "admin"
  user.password "foobar"
end

Factory.sequence :user_login do |n|
  "person-#{n}"
end

Factory.define :teacher do |teacher|
  ...
  teacher.user                                                                            
end

I met problem and i don’t understand how to solve that. When i create user via factory i can easily write:

@user = Factory( :user, :user_login => Factory.next(:user_login)  ) 

And this creates user with inique login.

How can i do same thing for teacher? I tried that:

@teacher = Factory( :teacher, :user_login => Factory.next(:user_login)  ) 

And it doesn’t work.

Answer 1

I solved that.

@teacher = Factory( :teacher, 
                    :user => Factory(:user, :user_login => Factory.next(:user_login)) )
