Spork
Sick of slow loading times? Spork
will load your main environment
once. It then runs a DRB server so
cucumber (or RSpec) can run
against it with the --drb flag. For
each test run Spork forks a child
process to run them in a clean
memory state. So.. it is a DRb
ser ver that forks.. hence Spork. :)

Integration tests
are a scam
J. B. Rainsberger
http://www.jbrains.ca/permalink/239
Obviously, I don’t agree with this
100%. But he has some valid points.
Integrations tests are not a
replacement for good unit tests. Use
cucumber for happy paths. Use lower
level tests for design and to isolate
object behavior.
Cucumber is a
good hammer

Not everything

Acceptance Tests Unit Tests
Application Level Object Level- Isolated!
For Customers For developers
Slow FAST! (should be at least)
Good confidence - Tighter Feedback Loop
Prevent against More about design!!!!!!!!!!!!
regression
Will need both gears!
Some things are easier to
test at the application
level and vice-versa.
SRSLY?
Model specs,
Controller Specs,
