clean way to load fixtures in tests

[Matteo Dello Ioio]

Hi, I'm looking for a clean way to load fixtures data in lettuce's tests.

For unit tests it's pretty easy, just set "fixtures" property inherited from TestCase. 

Isn't there something similar for Lettuce?

Thanks in advance

Hi Matteo,

I use to make a hook to run "call_command":

@before.each_scenario
@before.outline
def reset_data(scenario, *args):
    call_command('flush', interactive=False, verbosity=0)
    call_command('loaddata', 'some_initial.json', verbosity=0)

And, when I need an specific fixture, I just create a step to load it:

Given I have a ferrari in my garage

@step('I have a ferrari in my garage')
def load_a_ferrari(step):
    call_command('loaddata', 'ferrari.json', verbosity=0)

Best regards,
