I’m learning about Factory Girl and I saw this code:
factory :post do
association :author, factory: :user, last_name: "Writely"
end
why do factory and last_name have a colon at their end?
The colon in this context denotes a literal Hash.
factoryis theHashkey,:useris the value.The alternative syntax is
:factory => :user. They mean the same thing.
