[pm-h] Good article from chromatic about testing

[Charles Boyd]

His earlier article on testing was pretty good too:

"Grouping everything under functions also has the benefit of reminding
other developers that it's okay to write more functions. For example, if
every test for every action in a controller ought to verify access
permissions, it's easy to write a helper function to set up an environment
with and without access permissions to test both ways. (Some of these test
functions get promoted to project-specific test libraries.)"
