Indeed, but that's a different problem than the one being discussed. IMHO that's about making sure that your tests are a demonstration of the business requirements and not a demonstration that some code does something successfully.

Well, okay, but *unit* tests rarely correspond well to business requirements, that's much more likely to be the domain of *functional* tests, which a focus on unit testing often causes to be underprovided.Â
