ExMachina makes it easy to create test data and associations. It works great
with Ecto, but is configurable to work with any persistence library.

## Installation

#### To install in all environments (useful for generating seed data in dev/prod):

In `mix.exs`, add the ExMachina dependency:

```elixir
def deps do
# Get the latest from hex.pm. Works with Ecto 3.0
[
{:ex_machina, "~> 2.7.0"},
]
end
```

And start the ExMachina application. For most projects (such as
Phoenix apps) this will mean adding `:ex_machina` to the list of applications in
`mix.exs`. You can skip this step if you are using Elixir 1.4 or later.

```elixir
def application do
[mod: {MyApp, []},
applications: [:ex_machina, :other_apps...]]
end
```

#### Install in just the test environment with Phoenix:

In `mix.exs`, add the ExMachina dependency:

<!-- {x-release-please-start-version} -->
```elixir
def deps do
[
{:ex_machina, "~> 2.7.0", only: :test},
]
end
```
<!-- {x-release-please-end} -->

Add your factory module inside `test/support` so that it is only compiled in the
test environment.

You will follow the same instructions as above, but you will also need to add
`test/support` to your compilation paths (elixirc_paths) if you have not done
