Use Sorbet compatible setup-initializations in tests

Use Sorbet compatible setup-initializations in tests

Sorbet can help with type inference in tests if the setup is right. Otherwise types will be reduced to T.untyped.

Don't do

class Test < ActiveSupport::TestCase
  def setup # Don't use `dev setup`.
 @user = make_fixture(User, :alex) # Don't forget `T.let`

Tip on how to make a test mock builder for composite denormalized structures

Tip for test mock builders for denormalized attributes

(This is just one recommendation - and doesn't talk about error-free data structure design.)

Let's say there is a Project class that needs a convenience builder for testing. This Project consist of a company who owns the project and a list of tickets - where a ticket is just a name and the same company denormalized (for reasons). Since this company attribute is just a denormalization - it is/must-be consistent.

Don't do

Ruby's IO#reopen - thoughts

IO#reopen and its surprising side effect

This is a short debugging story that led to a few learnings. Our team is working on making TruffleRuby support one of our larger internal Ruby application. Running tests in CI we've noticed a flaky test failure reporting:

undefined method 'write_without_cli_ui' for #<IO:<STDOUT>> (NoMethodError)
