Painless Test Driven Development with Elixir and Phoenix
summary
Advocates a minimal starting toolset—ExUnit plus Hound—and adds libraries only when needed, demonstrating ExMachina and Faker for factories, mix test options like trace and stale, and Ecto 2 with Wallaby to run asynchronous browser tests that cut suite time roughly in half. Shows a demo League of Legends app on GitHub, organizes tests to mirror code directories, extracts page modules and a custom assert_current_path macro to make acceptance tests readable and failures informative.
