(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 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
