Announcing Fixture Busters... {dot}com
April 18th, 2008
I have been on a testing / refactoring rampage over the last few months and have learned an awful lot about making tests better. One particular pain point that I have run into is the use of fixtures in people's test suites. A lot of people already know that fixtures are a bad thing, but few people do anything about it. That's all about to change. I am going to start putting up screencasts that show you how to refactor the fixtures right out of your tests! If you have any Rails applications that you want to throw on the fire feel free to email the code to aaron at my domain dot com. Please no client projects, open source code only! I don't want to do your work for you.
You can find the site at http://fixturebusters.com. It will have some super duper styling love and the first screencast up sometime in the next week so stop on over and check it out!
