# squeal-hspec
Helpers for creating database tests with hspec and squeal, inspired by Jonathan
Fischoff's
[hspec-pg-transact](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hspec-pg-transact).
This uses @tmp-postgres@ to automatically and connect to a temporary instance of
postgres on a random port.
Current version is done to operate with Squeal 0.4.0.0.
`describeDB` lets you initate a series of `itDB` specs which will operate in the
same context. It takes migrations to run and a series of fixtures to fill the
database.
Setting the env var `TEST_DB_CONNECTION_STRING` will let you use a non-temporary
database if need be. Tear down will run the `migrateDown` to make sure the test
db doesn't get filled with invalid data.
