One more thing about customization... What about the tests? I tried overiding a functional test ( in the events controller ) Doing so, I have to copy the events_controller_test.rb file, all the fixtures it depends on as well as the helper files and the helpers that are located in the lib directory of the community engine ( authenticated_test_helper.rb ). So is this normal procedure?
Also, what if I want to use rSpec for testing my own customization, I cant override? Basically I'm looking for the best orientation to keep the testing clean and simple. But I want to continue to run the tests from community_engine, as well as my own tests ( also I would prefer to use rSpec for all new tests ). Is that all possible? Thanks!
