Can someone walk me through the unit testing process. I have created a .yaml file which resides in fixtures/app/models. I have created a unit test case file in unit/app/models. In that file I have delcared:

var $fixtures = 'yaml file name';

there is also the the setup method at the start of the file. It doesn't look like my yaml file data is getting loaded into the database.

I am using version 0.8 of Akelos.

Thanks Kaste,

I've done that. Is there a command to remove the data when the test is finished running. If I run the test a second time I get collision errors. I am also getting an error that looks like it has something to do with migration as follows:

Can't go up to version 2, already at version 2.

On the second post of this topic ... kaste wrote:

so you get
$this->installAndIncludeModels(...);

this method accepts as the last argument some options.

$options=array('populate'=>true);

will search in fixtures/data for a yaml-file.
You get an instance of the model at
$this->ModelName

---------
I have Test model (i know strange name , but it is working ;)
I have added : 'populate'=>true to $this->installAndIncludeModels(...) as the last argument as adviced ...
I have created a tests.yml file for that model in fixtures/data dir ... but it is not loaded to my project_test database .
So I still can't test my models with AkSimpleTest and fixtures ...
What am I doing wrong ?

best regards
