Talk:Ruby Programming/Unit testing

Isn't test:unit now deprecated in favor of minitest - at least in the standard Ruby dist? That's what Pickaxe says..

This is a great entry, but of cause this does not tell you much about how to design useful unit tests. Actually, that is a subject under documented on the internet as far as I can tell. Why not expand this entry to explain how to unit tests reading and writing data from files and databases, the use of mock objects etc? And please hurry! I need to find out how!

What about skipping tests?
