You probably know about this Factory Bot1 definition syntax:
FactoryBot.define do
factory :user do
name { 'Connie Customer' }
end
end
But did you know about this Factory Bot invocation syntax?
setup do
@user = create(:user)
end
Or:
setup do
@user = build(:user)
end
Or:
setup do
post :create, user: attributes_for(:user)
end
It’s in there.
