Yes. I'm a firm believer in writing the test first (for the most part). And starting with the integration test is nice because it keeps me focused on the goal and prevents me from getting sidetracked.

And it's a pretty great experience when after you've spent your whole day writing tests and code, and then when everything is green going "Oh, I should actually check that this works in the browser". And it does!


Yeah, see, this is the classic BDD thing I was mentioning above, and I think that's awesome.

Where I'm at (and I saw this happen today) is that - using the Cucumber-alike - we could wrap a new feature in automated tests the same day that a dev checked it in. So we're not doing BDD, but we are using those tools to get a nice set of automated tests put in by less-technical QA in a rapid release cycle. Maybe?
