## Testing a class that is an ActiveRecord::Migration
In order to test a class that is an `ActiveRecord::Migration`, you will need to

run migration, but will also bump the schema version in the `schema_migrations`
table. It is necessary because in the `after` hook we trigger the rest of
the migrations, and we need to know where to start.
See `spec/support/migrations_helpers.rb` for all the available helpers.
