Is there any configuration to do to enable DB rollbacks?

[Sharagoz]

I have just started to use machinist, and it looks awesome, but I
rollbacks are not happening for me. I use Rspec with mysql on win7
x64. I've looked around for info on this, but there's very little talk
about it, so I reckon it is enabled by default, however it does not
work on my box. Any ideas?

Are you using it with ActiveRecord? Rails? What versions?

Hi Pete

Yes, I am using both Rails and ActiveRecord, both are version 2.3.5

This is what blueprints.rb look like

require 'machinist/active_record'
require 'sham'
require 'faker'

Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
config.before(:all) { Sham.reset(:before_all) }
config.before(:each) { Sham.reset(:before_each) }
end

# Blueprints removed

ActiveRecord 2.3.5 uses transactional fixtures by default, so it should just work unless you've disabled them. 

That Spec::Runner.configure stuff should go inside the configure block in your spec_helper.rb. Not sure if doing it inside your blueprints file like that will work.

I figured it out when you mentioned transactional fixures. I copied
spec_helper from another project where I have been experimenting with
selenium, and selenium requires that transactional fixtures are
disbled, so that was the problem. Thanks for your help!

It does in the latest version of rspec/rspec-rails according to this
