If we had infinite resources, we wouldn't bother stubbing methods out. Stubbing adds a layer of complexity to our tests.

However, our machines have limited computing power. Tests that touch multiple objects (even in the background), or read and write files, or perform complex calcuations take longer to run than tests that touch a single object/method.

When tests take too long to run, developers stop running tests.

Tests are no good to us if we don't run them.

We have to make tests run quickly for them to maintain their value.

Learning to Use New Tools

General Google Tips

• Be sure to include search terms for the specific context in which you’re using the tool:
  • ‘RSpec Rails’ will return results that give you a gem specifically to use in Rails apps
  • 'Capybara RSpec Rails’, or ’select second div Capybara' will return more relevant results than ‘Capybara'

First Time Setup

• If you’re looking to set a tool up in your application, check docs to see if they have some description.
• Within the docs, check to see if there’s a section specifically geared towards setting it up in your environment.
