<h1>Click action + link-to different behavior in tests</h1>

<p>I noticed this difference between the actually using the app vs. in test. In this case, I have a button inside a component that goes to a different route than the component itself. We could argue about the UX, but that's another story. If you interact with the real component, clicking the button goes to a different route, but this behavior is different in test.</p>
