rspec_model_testing_skeleton.rb
# This is a skeleton for testing models including examples of validations, callbacks,
# scopes, instance & class methods, associations, and more.
# Pick and choose what you want, as all models don't NEED to be tested at this depth.
#
# I'm always eager to hear new tips & suggestions as I'm still new to testing,
# so if you have any, please share!
#
# @kyletcarlson
#
# This skeleton also assumes you're using the following gems:
#
# rspec-rails: https://github.com/rspec/rspec-rails
# Shoulda-matchers: https://github.com/thoughtbot/shoulda-matchers
# shoulda-callback-matchers: https://github.com/beatrichartz/shoulda-callback-matchers
# factory_girl_rails: https://github.com/thoughtbot/factory_girl_rails
