_(Notes for a Viget article I'm putting together)_
|
|
|
|
* Most importantly: **give you confidence to make changes**
|
|
* You need proper end-to-end testing
|
|
* Set up your data (fresh per test)
|
|
* Visit a page
|
|
* Interact with it
|
|
* Make assertions about the results
|
|
* Put complex logic into easily testable objects/functions
|
|
* Create stub objects to stand in for network calls
|
|
* Use [JSON Schema][1] to ensure stub stays in sync
|
|
* Avoid over-stubbing/mocking
|
|
* Coverage
|
|
* We shoot for 100% in SimpleCov (So all the Ruby is tested)
|
|
* Some consider this too high or too burdensome -- I don't
|
|
* Occasionally you have to ignore some code -- e.g. something that only runs in production
