Provided, there exists a method which gets the data from the table of one model. It takes some variables. While fetching the data, it interacts with other tables also. We have 2 to 3 different queries which are interlinked. Meaning by result from one query are used in the next. How one should start writing a test for it? What aspects should be tested? I am confused, dunno where to start?
Any help is much appreciated.
