Comment (by ncohen):
> The tests do not break at all thanks to the `# internet` flag, which is
not turned on by default. It has the same effect than `# random` except
that we can run them from time to time to check/update.
No, it has not. It gives you a way to have a clean documentation that is
helpful to the users even if the remote database changes, and it gives you
a way to write consistent tests why will not break even if the database
changes.
> Please read the whole thread
I do not care at all if you like to write broken test and to fix them
every two months. I just mentionned a way to do the job properly, and I
will not fight with you if you do not care. Have fun fixing them again in
6 months.
