No. Once all fixtures are loaded from this statement
fixtures :foo, :bar
It looks in :foo and :bar as the table names to match. It
will only
attempt to match if the value in this statement is a symbol:
user: :fred
In the case of duplicate keys, you're on your own and
probably have
bigger fish to fry.
If you're relying on symbols loading into fixtures you're
probably
screwed, but then, who does that?
This is intended to be a really lightweight addition for
people on the
golden path of rails. More advanced matching algorithms of
course
welcome.
