Self Important Test Data
^^^^^
**Definition:**

* Test data is more complex than is needed to exercise some behavior in a test.


**Code Example:**

.. code-block:: ruby

  # Subject under test
  def gps_within_location?(gps, location)
    boundaries = boundaries_for_zip(location.zip)

    boundaries.northWest.lat >= gps.lat &&
      boundaries.southEast.lat <= gps.lat &&
      boundaries.northEast.lng >= gps.lng &&
      boundaries.southWest.lng <= gps.lng
  end

  # Test
  class SelfImportantTestData < SmellTest
    def test_gps_inside_location
      gps = OpenStruct.new(
        altitude: 3000,
        course: 3.62,
        horizontalAccuracy: 10,
        lat: 43,
        lng: -77,
        secondsSinceLastUpdate: 4,
        speed: 3,
        utcOfLastFix: 180145,
        verticalAccuracy: 15
      )
      location = OpenStruct.new(
        name: 'Cup O Joe',
        streetLine1: '8312 Mulberry St',
        streetLine2: 'Lot #326 c/o very detailed test data',
        city: 'Grandview Heights',
        state: 'OH',
        stateFullName: 'Ohio',
        zip: 43221,
        zipPlus4: 8312
      )

      result = gps_within_location?(gps, location)

      assert_equal true, result
    end

    def test_gps_not_inside_location
      gps = OpenStruct.new(
        altitude: 4000,
        course: 14.18,
        horizontalAccuracy: 5,
        lat: 48,
        lng: -77,
        secondsSinceLastUpdate: 2,
        speed: 1,
        utcOfLastFix: 141445,
        verticalAccuracy: 25
      )
      location = OpenStruct.new(
        name: 'J.F.K Elementary School',
        streetLine1: '1438 Soledad St',
        streetLine2: nil,
        city: 'Columbus',
        state: 'OH',
        stateFullName: 'Ohio',
        zip: 43221,
        zipPlus4: 4294
      )

      result = gps_within_location?(gps, location)

      assert_equal false, result
    end
  end

  # Fake production implementations to simplify example test of subject
  def boundaries_for_zip(zip)
    OpenStruct.new(
      northWest: OpenStruct.new(lat: 45, lng: -80),
      southWest: OpenStruct.new(lat: 40, lng: -80),
      southEast: OpenStruct.new(lat: 40, lng: -75),
      northEast: OpenStruct.new(lat: 45, lng: -75)
    )
  end
