A sample rspec spec to test concurrent api calls

require 'rails_helper'

  let(:user) do
    FactoryGirl.create(:user, current_balance: 100_000)

      threads.each(&:join)
      user.reload
      expect(user.current_balance).to be >= 0
      expect(user.current_balance).to be 40_000

end

database_cleaner_strategies.rb

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.use_transactional_fixtures = false

  config.before(:suite) do
    DatabaseCleaner.clean_with(:truncation)
  end

  config.before do |example|
    if example.metadata[:truncation_only]
      DatabaseCleaner.strategy = :truncation
      DatabaseCleaner.start
    else
      DatabaseCleaner.strategy = :transaction
      DatabaseCleaner.start
    end
  end

  config.after do
    DatabaseCleaner.clean
  end
end

Typo in truncation spelling :D

fixed, thanks 😄

Thank you @goromlagche 🙇‍♀️ I didn't used the config though but I killed the threads after the spec was done
