Description
Might be worth adding fixtures for creating models with build instead of create
I know this exists because I've used FactoryBot in Rails and I knew to look for it, but others might not, and it's probably worth nudging people towards writing non-db tests when they can
If I've understood correctly, currently the only way to build is to use the factory fixture and call build?
def test(asset_factory):
asset = asset_factory.build()
Automatically registering fixtures like asset_build or similar might be a way to go. Thoughts?

Research direction
The issue does not name files or tests. Start by tracing how the existing factory fixture is registered and how its build() method is used, then determine the intended naming and registration behavior for build fixtures and add coverage showing that the resulting models avoid database creation.
