With Ruby on Rails, is there a way for me to dump my production

  • 0

With Ruby on Rails, is there a way for me to dump my production database into a form that the test part of Rails can access?

I’m thinking either a way to turn the production database into fixtures, or else a way to migrate data from the production database into the test database that will not get routinely cleared out by Rails.

I’d like to use this data for a variety of tests, but foremost in my mind is using real data with the performance tests, so that I can get a realistic understanding of load times.

    You can also check out http://github.com/napcs/lazy_developer which will allow you to put the production data into yaml files.
