Installing RSpec, FactoryBot, Faker gems and configuring for testing environment.
Ruby 3.0.1 + Rails 7.0.0
Let's get right to it...
Start a fresh project
rails new projectname -d postgresql
cd projectname
git add -A
git commit -m "initial commit"
rails db:create
rails s
Install gems
git checkout -b rspec
In Gemfile add...
group :development, :test do
# See https://guides.rubyonrails.org/debugging_rails_applications.html#debugging-with-the-debug-gem
gem "debug", platforms: %i[ mri mingw x64_mingw ]
gem "rspec-rails"
gem "factory_bot_rails"
gem "faker"
end
Back in terminal/command line...
bundle install
rails g rspec:install
Configure gems
Create 'support' directory in 'spec' directory and create two files
spec/support/factory_bot.rb
spec/support/chrome.rb
And then one file in the spec directory for factories.
spec/factories.rb
Configure FactoryBot
# spec/support/factory_bot.rb
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.include FactoryBot::Syntax::Methods
end
Configure driver
# spec/support/chrome.rb
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.before(:each, type: :system) do
if ENV["SHOW_BROWSER"] == "true"
driven_by :selenium_chrome
else
driven_by :selenium, using: :headless_chrome, screen_size: [1400, 1400]
end
end
end
Require support files in rails_helper.rb
# spec/rails_helper.rb
require_relative 'support/factory_bot'
require_relative 'support/chrome'
When you generate a User model (or any model) RSpec will generate a factory for you in your factories.rb
file.
You can modify it to look like this.
# spec/factories.rb
FactoryBot.define do
factory(:user) do
email { Faker::Internet.email }
password { Faker::Internet.password }
end
end
it "should run a test" do...
Run rspec
command in the terminal and you should see it run and output some green text.
-> rspec
No examples found.
Finished in 0.00038 seconds (files took 0.94577 seconds to load)
0 examples, 0 failures
Finish up
git add -A
git commit -m "add rspec"
git checkout main
git merge rspec
git branch -D rspec
git push # assuming you have a repo online somewhere
