Every time I want to run Rake test the task db:test:prepare is being called and it rebuilds my test environment database from schema.rb and migrations. What I would like to achive is to disable the call of db:test:prepare when I want to test make Rails application. Is it possible without modifying Rails gem?

Here's a solution I've seen around:
In your Rakefile:
Rake::TaskManager.class_eval do
def remove_task(task_name)
@tasks.delete(task_name.to_s)
end
end
In lib/tasks/db/test.rake
:
Rake.application.remove_task 'db:test:prepare'
namespace :db do
namespace :test do
task :prepare do |t|
# rewrite the task to not do anything you don't want
end
end
end

There is a plugin that takes care of this for you: override_rake_task. Here is a quick usage example:
namespace :db do
namespace :test do
override_task :prepare do; end
end
end
