One of the toughest parts of javascript unit testing is not the testing, it's learning how to architect your code so that it is testable.

You need to structure your code with a clear separation of testable logic and DOM manipulation.

If you are testing anything that is dependent on the DOM structure, then you are doing it wrong.

In summary:Try to test data manipulations and logical operations only.
