Method Detail
_initDb() protected ¶
_initDb( )
Initializes this class with a DataSource object to use as default for all fixtures
_loadFixtures() protected ¶

DataSource$db optional null - the datasource instance to use
 - boolean $drop optional true
 - whether drop the fixture if it is already created or not
 
fixturize() public ¶
fixturize( CakeTestCase $test )
		
Inspects the test to look for unloaded fixtures and loads them
Parameters
- 
						
CakeTestCase$test - the test case to inspect
 
load() public ¶
load( CakeTestCase $test )
		
Creates the fixtures tables and inserts data on them.
Parameters
- 
						
CakeTestCase$test - the test to inspect for fixture loading
 
loadSingle() public ¶
loadSingle( string $name , DataSource $db = null , boolean $dropTables = true )
		
Creates a single fixture table and loads data into it.
Parameters

Drop all fixture tables loaded by this class
This will also close the session, as failing to do so will cause fatal errors with database sessions.
unload() public ¶
unload( CakeTestCase $test )
		
Truncates the fixtures tables
Parameters
