title: Rails Integration Tests: reducing execution time
body: <p>I want to share my finding and hear from others about successful and failed attepts to reduce execution time of integration tests of Rails applications (be it 'ordinary' tests, Cucumber- or RSpec-based).</p>
  
  <p>The question implies that tests involve database, view rendering, and maybe JavaScript/AJAX. E.i. test don't stub/mock slow parts of the application.</p>
