## Unit Tests status
Niels: I've refactored the router tests. The were mostly testing JUri instead of JRouter. 'Expected' and 'actual' were swapped many places.
https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/pull/7455
Michael: In the Framework we started reviewing the application tests and decoupling a lot of bad logic and global manipulation in favor of proper mocks. Same will have to be done in other packages and CMS as its architecture allows. See: https://github.com/joomla-framework/application/pull/45 (and a couple PRs from George to make mocking data practical, but that ones the main one).
