Rails faker in model files?

So i've used faker before, but im making a sort of stress test model method to be able to insert n amount of fake records for a model to test things.

However despite requiring faker in that particular model file I always get the error LoadError: cannot load such file -- faker. Is it not possible to use faker in model files?

Thanks!

    require 'faker'
I18n.reload!
