Transferring rails schema and migrations from one rails app to a new one

I messed up pretty bad and created a rails application without the test directory on accident. I now need to make a whole new rails application but I have put a substantial amount of work into this first one. Is there a way that I can transfer my schema, migrations and any other database (postgres in this case) related things over to the new application with ease?

You don't really need the migrations if the db is as you want it, you can run rails db:schema:dump if you want to generate schema.rb file. The model files can be safely copied to your new project.

You can also just create a new project and then copy that projects test folder into your old one.
