# == Active Model Lint Tests
#
# You can test whether an object is compliant with the Active Model API by
# including <tt>ActiveModel::Lint::Tests</tt> in your TestCase. It will include
# tests that tell you whether your object is fully compliant, or if not,
# which aspects of the API are not implemented.
#
# These tests do not attempt to determine the semantic correctness of the
# returned values. For instance, you could implement valid? to always
# return true, and the tests would pass. It is up to you to ensure that
# the values are semantically meaningful.
#
# Objects you pass in are expected to return a compliant object from a
# call to to_model. It is perfectly fine for to_model to return self.
