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.

Thanks
sumanth
