Rails core - Jun 2008 - Changing AV::TestCase to AV::Helpers::TestCase and adding assertions enhancement

Since ActionView::TestCase is mostly used in conjunction with testing
helpers. I''m proposing changing it''s namespace. I''ve
added this as a
patch over on Lighthouse:
hhttp://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/442

I''ve also included in the patch an assertion method to aid in testing
helpers (in core and in individual applications).  The methods closely
mirror AC''s assert_tag and assert_no_tag. I''ve named them
assert_tag_in and assert_tag_not_in.
I blogged about using a method similar to this to aid in testing
plugins that add AV helpers:
http://www.viget.com/extend/testing-for-html-tags-in-rails-plugins/

I also created a branch on github:
http://github.com/brianjlandau/rails/commits/refactor_action_view_testcase

I''m seeking feedback of any kind in regards to this patch and
enhancement.

Thanks,
Brian
