Using JRuby / ActiveRecord-JDBC / PostgreSQL 8.1 I get
jruby --command rake test
(in /Users/stevel/Publisher)
rake aborted!
Task not supported by ‘jdbc’
Is it really the case that testing is not yet supported by
ActiveRecord-JDBC or am I missing something obvious?
Actually, yeah, what you are seeing is the artifact of the big hack
that is db:test:clone_structure.
If you are using migrations, you can use them to create your test
database instead, and that will likely work much better with AR-JDBC.
Put the following snippet in a “jdbc.rake” file in your lib/tasks
directory and away you go. Let me know if this works for you.
Build the test database using migrations rather than dumping the
schema and loading fixtures
Here we clear out prereqs and actions for the db:test:prepare task
so that it can be redefined
Rake::Task[“db:test:prepare”].send :instance_variable_set,
“@prerequisites”, FileList[]
Rake::Task[“db:test:prepare”].send :instance_variable_set, “@actions”,
[]
namespace :db do
namespace :test do
task :prepare => %w(environment db:test:migrate_schema)
desc ‘Use the migrations to create the test database’
task :migrate_schema => ‘db:test:purge’ do |t|
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(ActiveRecord::Base.configurations[‘test’])
ActiveRecord::Schema.verbose = t.application.options.trace
ActiveRecord::Migrator.migrate(“db/migrate/”)
end
end
end
— end rake snippet
