Ryan BatesHow do you prefer to test pagination in automated tests? Creating enough records can be slow. Is it a good practice to reduce the number of items per page in test environment?
Seth A. Roby@rbates I use a `per-page` param that's set in tests for this, even though it never gets set via the UI (there's no control for it, but it works if you add it to the URL manually).
Jay McGavren@rbates Dunno if it's "good" but I've yet to be burned by it.
Derek Prior@rbates I set the default page size in the test environment to 1. Then I only need to create two records. I can’t think of why this would be a problem.
Steven Harman@derekprior @rbates same. Been rolling that way for years. So far… fine. 🤷
@rbates I forgot that I wrote a bit about this TEN YEARS AGO 😱 https://thoughtbot.com/blog/taming-factory-bot-list-creation
FactoryBot now has `create_pair` so I consider the `*_list` variants a smell.
Simon Telahug@rbates have a constant in my app and stub it in the specs
Damax@rbates is it hand made pagination or a gem?
