I can not figure out how to get spork not to load all of my app models. Testing changes to my models is greatly slowed down as I am unable to use spork to help. This is what I get when I debug what spork is loading:

update: my spec_helper.rb
require 'rubygems'
require 'spork'
ENV["RAILS_ENV"] = "test"
Spork.prefork do
require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../config/environment')
require 'rspec/rails'
end
Spork.each_run do
# Hub::Application.reload_routes!
end
Dir["#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/support/**/*.rb"].each {|f| require f}
If I move require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../config/environment')
out of the prefork, my models are not preloaded, but as you might expect it takes much longer to run my tests.
Any ideas on how to get spork to not load models on a Rails 3 app? I have tried using spork 0.8.4, master branch, and currently 0.9.0.rc3. Does anyone have any ideas how I can avoid having the models preloaded?
After much time spinning my wheels I finally have something that is acceptable:
Spork.prefork do
require "rails/mongoid"
Spork.trap_class_method(Rails::Mongoid, :load_models)
# The following does not work correctly with Devise's routes that load the User model.
# Results in NameError unintitialized *
# :reload_routes! triggers :devise_for which loads and caches the User class.
# https://github.com/timcharper/spork/wiki/Spork.trap_method-Jujutsu
# require "rails/application"
# Spork.trap_method(Rails::Application, :reload_routes!)
require 'factory_girl_rails'
Spork.trap_class_method(Factory, :find_definitions)
require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../config/environment')
end
The problem was mostly due to Rails::Mongoid#load_models. After inspecting the debug output of spork and the backtrace of how things are loaded, some clues are provided as to what is loading the models. This page goes into a bit more detail https://github.com/timcharper/spork/wiki/Spork.trap_method-Jujutsu, but I do not find the :reload_routes! helping with Devise forcing the User class to be preloaded.
My specs are running much faster now. If only I could get my User model to not be cached I would be in bliss, but until then, I shall be mostly satisfied.
I have the following setup in both RSpec and Cucumber on Rails 3.1 and models are refreshing:
Set factory_girls_rails require => false
in your Gemfile
gem 'factory_girl_rails', :require => false
Replace the Spork.prefork and Spork.each_run blocks with the following code.
if Spork.using_spork?
ActiveSupport::Dependencies.clear
ActiveRecord::Base.instantiate_observers
Spork.prefork do
end
Spork.each_run do
require 'factory_girl_rails'
# reload all the models
Dir["#{Rails.root}/app/models/**/*.rb"].each do |model|
load model
end
# reload routes
Rails.application.reload_routes!
end
