Right, that's exactly it. The difference with controller tests is that you get to browse across different controllers, not just the one. The difference with integration tests is that you browse via clicking links, submitting forms, etc, as opposed as sending low-level HTTP requests.

In general, my view is that it's best to avoid Selenium unless you really need JS. In this case, the tests involved typically are about the profile section and similar, which don't need JS most of the time. Anywhere we think the JS is relevant, we can add back.

The implementation would look something like "Selenium by default, except in these tests where we use rack-test" or the other way around.
