Scenario Builders | #113

In a data-rich environment, we can use the Builder concept to make DSL's for our Making application. This often makes testing the hard business core of our code both faster and easier. We've spoken in the past about using our codebase to do more than one thing. We always use it to create our shipping app. But we can and do use it for an app that improves our *making* process. We call that the making app. When you're running your microtests, it doesn't necessarily look or feel like you're running an app, but you are. And that app uses much of the same source-code that what you ship does. It just uses it in a very different way. Some applications manipulate a whole lot of intricately connected data. In the world of healthcare, for instance, an app might have literally dozens of classes, all rooted to and connected with a Patient. And the business logic is quite thick, with many cases and variants.
