Unit test fails when using non-standard table names

Reported by ohforf | March 24th, 2010 @ 08:52 PM | in 3.0.2

Using set_table_name to set a custom table name causes unit tests to fail:

1) Error: test_myotherclass(MyotherclassTest):
ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: SQLite3::SQLException: no such table: myrecords: DELETE FROM "myrecords" WHERE 1=1

Of course there is no such table, since I did a “set_table_name 'my_fancy_tablename'” in class Myrecord.

This error has been reported in tickets #389 and #307. These tickets have been marked as spam.

The author of ticket #389 writes “patch included”, however I'm unable to view this patch.

- Tag changed from “activerecord set_table_name test” to “activerecord fixtures set_table_name set_fixture_class”
You have to explicitly call the undocumented function set_fixture_class in the test helper to make the fixtures work again:
set_fixture_class :pears => "Fruit::Pear"

Maybe this should be documented in the set_table_name function.
