[erlang-questions] rebar and eunit test prep

[Eric Merritt]

Bob has advice for how to do this in rebar.

However, you want your unit tests to be small and focused. They
shouldn't need mnesia started to run, mock up the mnesia calls with
meck.

These are more integration tests then unit tests, for that use
something along the lines of common test.

This distinction between self contained unit tests that just focus on
the module functionality and then broader integration tests is an
important one.
