Problem Statement

Expertiza tests are really slow. If you check the TravisCI, it needs more than 9 min to run all tests. One reason is that we use fixture to create records in test DB each time running tests.

Related Work

  • Classes involved: All RSpec test files in Expertiza.
  • Database involved: Expertiza_test

Task

Formally, you need to:

  • Create the records in test DB according to the content in fixtures.
  • Check each test file and delete certain DB records creation code that insert default records (eg. create(:deadline_type))
  • And keep all the test cases passing when using test DB and make sure the time running test cases is shorter than before.
  • You should submit the sql file of test DB to expertiza.
