That is not a bug, the query includes all *known* descendants of `Rectangle`.
A way to ensure this works correctly regardless of the order of execution is to
-load the leaves of the tree by hand at the bottom of the file that defines the
-root class:
+manually load the direct subclasses at the bottom of the file that defines each
+intermediate class:
```ruby
-# app/models/polygon.rb
-class Polygon < ApplicationRecord
+# app/models/rectangle.rb
+class Rectangle < Polygon
end
-require_dependency ‘square’
+require_dependency 'square'
```
-Only the leaves that are **at least grandchildren** need to be loaded this
-way. Direct subclasses do not need to be preloaded. If the hierarchy is
-deeper, intermediate classes will be autoloaded recursively from the bottom
-because their constant will appear in the class definitions as superclass.
+This needs to happen for every intermediate (non-root and non-leaf) class. The
+root class does not scope the query by type, and therefore does not necessarily
+have to know all its descendants.

For the purposes of unit testing a mailer, fixtures are used to provide an example of how the output _should_ look. Because these are example emails, and not Active Record data like the other fixtures, they are kept in their own subdirectory apart from the other fixtures. The name of the directory within `test/fixtures` directly corresponds to the name of the mailer. So, for a mailer named `UserMailer`, the fixtures should reside in `test/fixtures/user_mailer` directory.
-When you generated your mailer, the generator creates stub fixtures for each of the mailers actions. If you didn't use the generator, you'll have to create those files yourself.
