+# Fixtures are a way of organizing data that you want to test against; in short, sample data. They come in 3 flavors:
+#
+#   1.  YAML fixtures
+#   2.  CSV fixtures
+#   3.  Single-file fixtures
+#
+# = YAML fixtures
+#
+# This type of fixture is in YAML format and the preferred default. YAML is a file format which describes data structures
+# in a non-verbose, human-readable format. It ships with Ruby 1.8.1+.
+#
+# Unlike single-file fixtures, YAML fixtures are stored in a single file per model, which are placed in the directory appointed
+# by <tt>Test::Unit::TestCase.fixture_path=(path)</tt> (this is automatically configured for Rails, so you can just
+# put your files in <your-rails-app>/test/fixtures/). The fixture file ends with the .yml file extension (Rails example:
+# "<your-rails-app>/test/fixtures/web_sites.yml"). The format of a YAML fixture file looks like this:
+#
+#   rubyonrails:
+#     id: 1
+#     name: Ruby on Rails
+#     url: http://www.rubyonrails.org
+#
+#   google:
+#     id: 2
+#     name: Google
+#     url: http://www.google.com
+#
+# This YAML fixture file includes two fixtures.  Each YAML fixture (ie. record) is given a name and is followed by an
+# indented list of key/value pairs in the "key: value" format.  Records are separated by a blank line for your viewing
+# pleasure.
+#
+# Note that YAML fixtures are unordered. If you want ordered fixtures, use the omap YAML type.  See http://yaml.org/type/omap.html
+# for the specification.  You will need ordered fixtures when you have foreign key constraints on keys in the same table.
+# This is commonly needed for tree structures.  Example:
+#
+#    --- !omap
+#    - parent:
+#        id:         1
+#        parent_id:  NULL
+#        title:      Parent
+#    - child:
+#        id:         2
+#        parent_id:  1
+#        title:      Child
+#
+# = CSV fixtures
+#
+# Fixtures can also be kept in the Comma Separated Value format. Akin to YAML fixtures, CSV fixtures are stored
+# in a single file, but instead end with the .csv file extension (Rails example: "<your-rails-app>/test/fixtures/web_sites.csv")
+#
+# The format of this type of fixture file is much more compact than the others, but also a little harder to read by us
+# humans.  The first line of the CSV file is a comma-separated list of field names.  The rest of the file is then comprised
+# of the actual data (1 per line).  Here's an example:
+#
+#   id, name, url
+#   1, Ruby On Rails, http://www.rubyonrails.org
+#   2, Google, http://www.google.com
+#
+# Should you have a piece of data with a comma character in it, you can place double quotes around that value.  If you
+# need to use a double quote character, you must escape it with another double quote.
+#
+# Another unique attribute of the CSV fixture is that it has *no* fixture name like the other two formats.  Instead, the
+# fixture names are automatically generated by deriving the class name of the fixture file and adding an incrementing
+# number to the end.  In our example, the 1st fixture would be called "web_site_1" and the 2nd one would be called
+# "web_site_2".
+#
+# Most databases and spreadsheets support exporting to CSV format, so this is a great format for you to choose if you
+# have existing data somewhere already.
+#
+# = Single-file fixtures
+#
+# This type of fixture was the original format for Active Record that has since been deprecated in favor of the YAML and CSV formats.
+# Fixtures for this format are created by placing text files in a sub-directory (with the name of the model) to the directory
+# appointed by <tt>Test::Unit::TestCase.fixture_path=(path)</tt> (this is automatically configured for Rails, so you can just
+# put your files in <your-rails-app>/test/fixtures/<your-model-name>/ -- like <your-rails-app>/test/fixtures/web_sites/ for the WebSite
+# model).
+#
+# Each text file placed in this directory represents a "record".  Usually these types of fixtures are named without
+# extensions, but if you are on a Windows machine, you might consider adding .txt as the extension.  Here's what the
+# above example might look like:
+#
+#   web_sites/google
+#   web_sites/yahoo.txt
+#   web_sites/ruby-on-rails
+#
+# The file format of a standard fixture is simple.  Each line is a property (or column in db speak) and has the syntax
+# of "name => value".  Here's an example of the ruby-on-rails fixture above:
+#
+#   id => 1
+#   name => Ruby on Rails
+#   url => http://www.rubyonrails.org
+#
+# = Using Fixtures
+#
+# Since fixtures are a testing construct, we use them in our unit and functional tests.  There are two ways to use the
+# fixtures, but first let's take a look at a sample unit test:
+#
+#   require 'web_site'
+#
+#   class WebSiteTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
+#     def test_web_site_count
+#       assert_equal 2, WebSite.count
+#     end
+#   end
+#
+# As it stands, unless we pre-load the web_site table in our database with two records, this test will fail.  Here's the
+# easiest way to add fixtures to the database:
+#
+#   ...
+#   class WebSiteTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
+#     fixtures :web_sites # add more by separating the symbols with commas
+#   ...
+#
+# By adding a "fixtures" method to the test case and passing it a list of symbols (only one is shown here though), we trigger
+# the testing environment to automatically load the appropriate fixtures into the database before each test.
+# To ensure consistent data, the environment deletes the fixtures before running the load.
+#
+# In addition to being available in the database, the fixtures are also loaded into a hash stored in an instance variable
+# of the test case.  It is named after the symbol... so, in our example, there would be a hash available called
+# @web_sites.  This is where the "fixture name" comes into play.
+#
+# On top of that, each record is automatically "found" (using Model.find(id)) and placed in the instance variable of its name.
+# So for the YAML fixtures, we'd get @rubyonrails and @google, which could be interrogated using regular Active Record semantics:
+#
+#   # test if the object created from the fixture data has the same attributes as the data itself
+#   def test_find
+#     assert_equal @web_sites["rubyonrails"]["name"], @rubyonrails.name
+#   end
+#
+# As seen above, the data hash created from the YAML fixtures would have @web_sites["rubyonrails"]["url"] return
+# "http://www.rubyonrails.org" and @web_sites["google"]["name"] would return "Google". The same fixtures, but loaded
+# from a CSV fixture file, would be accessible via @web_sites["web_site_1"]["name"] == "Ruby on Rails" and have the individual
+# fixtures available as instance variables @web_site_1 and @web_site_2.
+#
+# If you do not wish to use instantiated fixtures (usually for performance reasons) there are two options.
+#
+#   - to completely disable instantiated fixtures:
+#       self.use_instantiated_fixtures = false
+#
+#   - to keep the fixture instance (@web_sites) available, but do not automatically 'find' each instance:
+#       self.use_instantiated_fixtures = :no_instances
+#
+# Even if auto-instantiated fixtures are disabled, you can still access them
+# by name via special dynamic methods. Each method has the same name as the
+# model, and accepts the name of the fixture to instantiate:
+#
+#   fixtures :web_sites
+#
+#   def test_find
+#     assert_equal "Ruby on Rails", web_sites(:rubyonrails).name
+#   end
+#
+# = Dynamic fixtures with ERb
+#
+# Some times you don't care about the content of the fixtures as much as you care about the volume. In these cases, you can
+# mix ERb in with your YAML or CSV fixtures to create a bunch of fixtures for load testing, like:
+#
+# <% for i in 1..1000 %>
+# fix_<%= i %>:
+#   id: <%= i %>
+#   name: guy_<%= 1 %>
+# <% end %>
+#
+# This will create 1000 very simple YAML fixtures.
+#
+# Using ERb, you can also inject dynamic values into your fixtures with inserts like <%= Date.today.strftime("%Y-%m-%d") %>.
+# This is however a feature to be used with some caution. The point of fixtures are that they're stable units of predictable
+# sample data. If you feel that you need to inject dynamic values, then perhaps you should reexamine whether your application
+# is properly testable. Hence, dynamic values in fixtures are to be considered a code smell.
+#
+# = Transactional fixtures
+#
+# TestCases can use begin+rollback to isolate their changes to the database instead of having to delete+insert for every test case.
+# They can also turn off auto-instantiation of fixture data since the feature is costly and often unused.
+#
+#   class FooTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
+#     self.use_transactional_fixtures = true
+#     self.use_instantiated_fixtures = false
+#
+#     fixtures :foos
+#
+#     def test_godzilla
+#       assert !Foo.find(:all).empty?
+#       Foo.destroy_all
+#       assert Foo.find(:all).empty?
+#     end
+#
+#     def test_godzilla_aftermath
+#       assert !Foo.find(:all).empty?
+#     end
+#   end
+#
+# If you preload your test database with all fixture data (probably in the Rakefile task) and use transactional fixtures,
+# then you may omit all fixtures declarations in your test cases since all the data's already there and every case rolls back its changes.
+#
+# In order to use instantiated fixtures with preloaded data, set +self.pre_loaded_fixtures+ to true. This will provide
+# access to fixture data for every table that has been loaded through fixtures (depending on the value of +use_instantiated_fixtures+)
+#
+# When *not* to use transactional fixtures:
+#   1. You're testing whether a transaction works correctly. Nested transactions don't commit until all parent transactions commit,
+#      particularly, the fixtures transaction which is begun in setup and rolled back in teardown. Thus, you won't be able to verify
+#      the results of your transaction until Active Record supports nested transactions or savepoints (in progress).
+#   2. Your database does not support transactions. Every Active Record database supports transactions except MySQL MyISAM.
+#      Use InnoDB, MaxDB, or NDB instead.
+#
+# = Advanced YAML Fixtures
+#
+# YAML fixtures that don't specify an ID get some extra features:
+#
+# * Stable, autogenerated ID's
+# * Label references for associations (belongs_to, has_one, has_many)
+# * HABTM associations as inline lists
+# * Autofilled timestamp columns
+# * Fixture label interpolation
+# * Support for YAML defaults
+#
+# == Stable, autogenerated ID's
+#
+# Here, have a monkey fixture:
+#
+#   george:
+#     id: 1
+#     name: George the Monkey
+#
+#   reginald:
+#     id: 2
+#     name: Reginald the Pirate
+#
+# Each of these fixtures has two unique identifiers: one for the database
+# and one for the humans. Why don't we generate the primary key instead?
+# Hashing each fixture's label yields a consistent ID:
+#
+#   george: # generated id: 503576764
+#     name: George the Monkey
+#
+#   reginald: # generated id: 324201669
+#     name: Reginald the Pirate
+#
+# ActiveRecord looks at the fixture's model class, discovers the correct
+# primary key, and generates it right before inserting the fixture
+# into the database.
+#
+# The generated ID for a given label is constant, so we can discover
+# any fixture's ID without loading anything, as long as we know the label.
+#
+# == Label references for associations (belongs_to, has_one, has_many)
+#
+# Specifying foreign keys in fixtures can be very fragile, not to
+# mention difficult to read. Since ActiveRecord can figure out the ID of
+# any fixture from its label, you can specify FK's by label instead of ID.
+#
+# === belongs_to
+#
+# Let's break out some more monkeys and pirates.
+#
+#   ### in pirates.yml
+#
+#   reginald:
+#     id: 1
+#     name: Reginald the Pirate
+#     monkey_id: 1
+#
+#   ### in monkeys.yml
+#
+#   george:
+#     id: 1
+#     name: George the Monkey
+#     pirate_id: 1
+#
+# Add a few more monkeys and pirates and break this into multiple files,
+# and it gets pretty hard to keep track of what's going on. Let's
+# use labels instead of ID's:
+#
+#   ### in pirates.yml
+#
+#   reginald:
+#     name: Reginald the Pirate
+#     monkey: george
+#
+#   ### in monkeys.yml
+#
+#   george:
+#     name: George the Monkey
+#     pirate: reginald
+#
+# Pow! All is made clear. ActiveRecord reflects on the fixture's model class,
+# finds all the +belongs_to+ associations, and allows you to specify
+# a target *label* for the *association* (monkey: george) rather than
+# a target *id* for the *FK* (monkey_id: 1).
+#
+# ==== Polymorphic belongs_to
+#
+# Supporting polymorphic relationships is a little bit more complicated, since
+# ActiveRecord needs to know what type your association is pointing at. Something
+# like this should look familiar:
+#
+#   ### in fruit.rb
+#
+#   belongs_to :eater, :polymorphic => true
+#
+#   ### in fruits.yml
+#
+#   apple:
+#     id: 1
+#     name: apple
+#     eater_id: 1
+#     eater_type: Monkey
+#
+# Can we do better? You bet!
+#
+#   apple:
+#     eater: george (Monkey)
+#
+# Just provide the polymorphic target type and ActiveRecord will take care of the rest.
+#
+# === has_and_belongs_to_many
+#
+# Time to give our monkey some fruit.
+#
+#   ### in monkeys.yml
+#
+#   george:
+#     id: 1
+#     name: George the Monkey
+#     pirate_id: 1
+#
+#   ### in fruits.yml
+#
+#   apple:
+#     id: 1
+#     name: apple
+#
+#   orange:
+#     id: 2
+#     name: orange
+#
+#   grape:
+#     id: 3
+#     name: grape
+#
+#   ### in fruits_monkeys.yml
+#
+#   apple_george:
+#     fruit_id: 1
+#     monkey_id: 1
+#
+#   orange_george:
+#     fruit_id: 2
+#     monkey_id: 1
+#
+#   grape_george:
+#     fruit_id: 3
+#     monkey_id: 1
+#
+# Let's make the HABTM fixture go away.
+#
+#   ### in monkeys.yml
+#
+#   george:
+#     name: George the Monkey
+#     pirate: reginald
+#     fruits: apple, orange, grape
+#
+#   ### in fruits.yml
+#
+#   apple:
+#     name: apple
+#
+#   orange:
+#     name: orange
+#
+#   grape:
+#     name: grape
+#
+# Zap! No more fruits_monkeys.yml file. We've specified the list of fruits
+# on George's fixture, but we could've just as easily specified a list
+# of monkeys on each fruit. As with +belongs_to+, ActiveRecord reflects on
+# the fixture's model class and discovers the +has_and_belongs_to_many+
+# associations.
+#
+# == Autofilled timestamp columns
+#
+# If your table/model specifies any of ActiveRecord's
+# standard timestamp columns (created_at, created_on, updated_at, updated_on),
+# they will automatically be set to Time.now.
+#
+# If you've set specific values, they'll be left alone.
+#
+# == Fixture label interpolation
+#
+# The label of the current fixture is always available as a column value:
+#
+#   geeksomnia:
+#     name: Geeksomnia's Account
+#     subdomain: $LABEL
+#
+# Also, sometimes (like when porting older join table fixtures) you'll need
+# to be able to get ahold of the identifier for a given label. ERB
+# to the rescue:
+#
+#   george_reginald:
+#     monkey_id: <%= Fixtures.identify(:reginald) %>
+#     pirate_id: <%= Fixtures.identify(:george) %>
+#
+# == Support for YAML defaults
+#
+# You probably already know how to use YAML to set and reuse defaults in
+# your +database.yml+ file,. You can use the same technique in your fixtures:
+#
+#   DEFAULTS: &DEFAULTS
+#     created_on: <%= 3.weeks.ago.to_s(:db) %>
+#
+#   first:
+#     name: Smurf
+#     <<: *DEFAULTS
+#
+#   second:
+#     name: Fraggle
+#     <<: *DEFAULTS
+#
+# Any fixture labeled "DEFAULTS" is safely ignored.
