Isolate from Framework Couplings
From Zentyal Linux Small Business Server
Ideally, unit tests must be isolated and decoupled from the rest of the system. In large frameworks like Zentyal we must make a strong effort to isolate the tests from the applications and framework.
Remember: if we had to run the tests as root or as the Zentyal user that would indicate a very tight coupling between Zentyal and the unit tests, and that is a bad thing.
Isolation issues:
- Zentyal configuration
- sudo command execution
- eBox::Config file path
- Zentyal logs
- Zentyal exceptions (they write to logs)
- Coding module bad practices
