If you've got something complex enough to test in isolation, maybe you
should consider it a unit in its own right? In fact the phrase "test it
thoroughly in isolation" surely is what unit testing is all about? :)

What you're doing there is unit testing, but you've got one unit wrapped in
another.

Anytime I've a method that's reasonably complex, I like to test it
thoroughly in isolation while my understanding of it is fresh and in
depth. I'm not one to wait until I've an entire "unit" (whatever that
might be) of code built then test it all at once.
