ActiveRecord is well tested.  Focus on testing your app code instead. 
(reflect_on_association is handy for testing that you've specified your 
associations properly.)

I tend to put my association specs in the class unit spec (I use RSpec, 
not Test::Unit), since associations are a property of the model.  I'd 
usually test each end of the association in the respective model's spec 
file.

Forget those things and go straight to Cucumber.
