Front End Testing Frontier

" summary

Shows concrete recipes: use Capybara + Cucumber for end-to-end tests and switch drivers (rack_test, Selenium, htmlunit variants) because the harness is driver-agnostic, write fast Jasmine unit specs served by the Evergreen gem at slash/evergreen or via rake, use a dynamic template and reset a DOM fixture between examples to avoid test bleed, exercise real interactions including drag and drop with capybara's drag_to API and run CoffeeScript specs unchanged.
