What’s the “unit” in unit testing and why is it not a class

The article discusses the fundamental question of what constitutes a 'unit' in unit testing, challenging the common assumption that it's a single class. It provides heuristics for defining test scope, emphasizes the cost and value of good tests, and uses a real-life database management example to illustrate how to decide what to test based on design intent and requirements, not just rigid rules.
