Remove prereqs in Rake (Rails 1.1 and Rake 0.7) (See related posts)

This code will remove the prequisitive to prepare the test database in Rails. Put it in your Rakefile.

module Rake
 class Task
   def remove_prerequisite(task_name)
     name = task_name.to_s
     @prerequisites.delete(name)
   end
 end
end

Rake::Task['test:units'].remove_prerequisite('db:test:prepare')
Rake::Task['test:functionals'].remove_prerequisite('db:test:prepare')

This works as advertised (tested in Rails 1.1.2 and Rake 0.7.1) only when I add change test/test_helper like this :


ENV["RAILS_ENV"] = "test"
require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/../config/environment")

require 'application'
require 'test/unit'
require 'action_controller/test_process'
require 'breakpoint'


(from the DatabaseLessApplication recipe in the RailsRecipes book. That recipe works only in Rails 1.0, not in 1.1)
