Argh. Been so long that I sent this to the dev list by mistake...
In Drupal 7, I have a requirement to simpletest a functional group of methods... one test comprised of about 1800 subtest permutations.
The issue I have is that these are back-end functions with no UI interaction, yet simpletest unit test, from what I read, does not provide the functionality for accessing the db, creating test tables and data, etc.
Do I fudge it by having a menu callback, or by having an admin page with a button if necessary, so that I can webtest, or do I manually include db.inc, etc. so that I can access the db, (though I think it would need to be much dirtier than that)?

If its just functional testing without any UI, why not just use phpunit directly?

Corporate IT. The last time they updated the rule book, the version of php didn't have phpunit.
