[Seaside] GRSlimeTest>>#run:do: question

[Lukas Renggli]

Hi Paul,

I guess this question is targeted at me, but I don't quite understand it :-)

What GRSlimeTest>>#run:do: ensures is that exactly one rule triggers
for a bogus source artifact. If your rules make some other rules to
fail, you either have to restrict your rules further or we have to
find better examples of how to test the existing rules.
