I like model tests, they make sense to me.  But I still haven''t quite  
''got'' functional testing.  I''m having difficulty
doing sensible
testing... I quite often end up calling the same method in my tests  
as I do in my ''real'' code, which to me feels very wrong, and
seems
likely to be hiding more bugs than it shows.
For example, I want to display a file size in a view.  So I compare  
the response body against the regexp  /File size : #{human_size 
(File.size(file))}/
What do I then paste into my view code?  Almost exactly the same  
thing :   File size : <%= human_size(File.size(@asset.file)) %>
Does anyone else think there''s something wrong there?  It feels a bit  
icky to be making my tests pass by essentially cut & pasting from my  
test code...
Would love to see other people''s functional tests to get a better  
idea of what should & shouldn''t be tested.  Anyone willing to
share?
Jon
