ActiveLdap Fabrication

ActiveLdap adapter for Fabrication.

Description

‘ActiveLdap Fabrication’ is an ActiveLdap adapter for Fabrication. It means that you can use Fabrication as fixture replacement for ActiveLdap.

Requirements

• ActiveLdap
• Fabrication

Install

Here are install steps for Rails 3:

• Add activeldap-fabrication gem to your Gemfile.
• Change fixture_replacement to Fabrication in your config/application.rb.
• Add require "active_ldap_fabrication" in your test/test_helper.rb or spec/spec_helper.rb.

Gemfile:

group :development, :test do
  # ...
  gem "activeldap-fabrication" # <- Add this.
end

config/application.rb:

config.generators do |g|
  # For test-unit
  g.test_framework :test_unit, :fixture => true, :fixture_replacement => "fabrication"
  g.fixture_replacement :fabrication, :dir => "test/fabricators"
  # For RSpec
  # g.test_framework      :rspec, :fixture => true, :fixture_replacement => "fabrication"
  # g.fixture_replacement :fabrication
end

test/test_helper.rb:

ENV["RAILS_ENV"] = "test"
require File.expand_path('../../config/environment', __FILE__)
require 'rails/test_help'
require "active_ldap_fabrication" # <- Add this.

class ActiveSupport::TestCase
  # Add more helper methods to be used by all tests here...

  # LDAP: start
  setup do
    @dumped_data = nil
    begin
      @dumped_data = ActiveLdap::Base.dump(:scope => :sub)
    rescue ActiveLdap::ConnectionError
    end
    ActiveLdap::Base.delete_all(nil, :scope => :sub)
    populate_ldap
  end

  teardown do
    if @dumped_data
      ActiveLdap::Base.setup_connection
      ActiveLdap::Base.delete_all(nil, :scope => :sub)
      ActiveLdap::Base.load(@dumped_data)
    end
  end

  def populate_ldap
    populate_ldap_base
    populate_ldap_ou
  end

  def populate_ldap_base
    ActiveLdap::Populate.ensure_base
  end

  def populate_ldap_ou
  end
  # LDAP: end
end

Usage

We generate User model:

% script/rails generate model User --classes person

We populate ou=Users on setup in test/test_helper.rb:

# ...
class ActiveSupport::TestCase
  # ...
  def populate_ldap_ou
    ActiveLdap::Populate.ensure_ou("Users") # <- Add this.
  end
end

We define test data in test/fabricators/user_fabricator.rb:

Fabricator(:user) do
end

Fabricator(:bob, :from => :user) do
  cn "Bob"
  sn "Dyran"
end

We add a test for User model in test/unit/user_test.rb:

require 'test_helper'

class UserTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase
   test "cn" do
     assert_equal("Bob", Fabricate(:bob).cn)
   end
end

We run tests:

% bundle exec rake test
Loaded suite /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/rake-0.9.2/lib/rake/rake_test_loader
Started

UserTest:
     PASS cn (1.10s)

Finished in 1.101005 seconds.
