When running capybara feature specs I can see lots of Slow factory notices which are populated byfactory_girl. These Slow factory things heavy slow down the feature specs, I think, even feature specs are intrinsic slow specs. Then I had some inspect and found out most of the Slow factory was caused bypaperclip. We had model using paperclip here:

FactoryGirl.define do 
  factory :asset do 
    image Rails.root.join('spec/fixtures/sample.jpg').open 
  end 
end

So I wonder if there's a way like test mode for paperclip to speed up tests. I have simple solution here: Just copy the original file instead of actually crop it.

What is the best method to manage image uploads in Rails? Is there a tool that allows auto-resizing upon image upload based on predefined dimensions?
