I have these models that I'm trying to create factories for using factory_girl.
class Foo < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :baz
end
class Baz < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :foos
end
I'm not sure how to create the factories without creating a loop where the factories endlessly call each other.
Factory.define :foo do |f|
f.after_create do |ff|
ff.baz = Factory(:baz)
end
end
Factory.define :baz do |f|
f.after_create do |ff|
ff.foos = [Factory.create(:foo)]
end
end
I realize I can just leave out ff.foos = [Factory.create(:foo)] in the baz factory, but then in my baz tests I'm forced to used foo.baz instead of just using baz. Am I forced to use the baz object by fetching it out of a foo factory in my tests? Or is there a better way?
