rspec factory create_list with association

To create a list of associated objects using rspec factory, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Define the factory for the associated object In your factory file, define the factory for the associated object using the factory method. For example, if you have a User model which has many Posts, you would define the factory for Post as follows:

FactoryBot.define do
  factory :post do
    # attributes for the post
  end
end

Step 2: Define the factory for the main object Next, define the factory for the main object (e.g., User) which has the association with the associated object. In this case, you would define the factory for User as follows:

FactoryBot.define do
  factory :user do
    # attributes for the user

    # association with posts
    posts { association(:post) }
  end
end

Step 3: Use create_list method To create a list of associated objects, you can use the create_list method provided by rspec. In your test file, you can write the following code:

# assuming you have defined the factories as mentioned above
# create 5 users with associated posts
users = create_list(:user, 5)

This will create 5 User objects, each with an associated Post object.

That's it! You have successfully created a list of associated objects using rspec factory.
