(ActiveRecord::Base.connection.tables - %w{schema_migrations}).each do

Yeah, that’s just a cleaner way of doing it - I’m sure if you tailed
your logs you’d find a ‘SHOW TABLES’

Yeah, depending on the rails environment it probably and caching it
probably would.

ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute(“TRUNCATE TABLE #{table_name};”)

Seems like you might also want to add a truncate_table method onto
ActiveRecord::Base.

Yeah, I tend to ussually add this to my projects as well:

class ActiveRecord::Base

class << self

def truncate
  self.connection.execute("TRUNCATE TABLE #{table_name};")
end

end

end

English FAIL. I meant to say:

Does ActiveRecord cache table names? I’m well aware of it caching
table columns:
