Rails Tesing Strategy

UnitTest

• 모델

  • DB를 사용하지 않는다. UnitRecord

• 컨트롤러

  • Model에 의존하지 않는다. UnitController
  • View를 렌더링하지 않는다.

FunctionTest

• 여러 모델
• 모델과 DB
• 모델과 컨트롤러
• 느린 속도가 문제. deepTest를 이용한 병렬 처리

UnitTest or FunctionalTest

• Testing: Unit Test or Functional Test

  • UnitTest와 FunctionalTest가 모두 필요한가요?라는 질문에 대한 답변. UnitTest로 할 수 있는 부분은 모두 UnitTest하고, 최소한의 FunctionalTest를 갖는 것이 효과적이다.

  • In general, there are far more unit tests than functional tests. This is a result of testing permutations, edge cases, etc within the unit test suite. If a format class contains 10 logical code paths, there should be at least 10 unit tests to verify that it works correctly; however, you may only need 1 functional test to verify that the format class works correctly with the other objects it interacts with.

• When are Unit tests enough?

  • it's when the method under test executes entirely in isolation.
  • Any time you are interacting with dependencies it's important to verify the integration between classes.
