Object Daddy

Posted by rick Tue, 27 Nov 2007 15:14:00 GMT

I’m posting at a new site (b.logi.cx) ... more news on that later. The first article is about a new piece of software I’m developing called Object Daddy, meant to do away with the need for Ruby on Rails fixtures and to greatly ease ActiveRecord model testing. The article about it is LONG, but don’t let that scare you, it’s all in good fun.
