I thought it was an interesting article. If you want to skip the long read, a better summary would be "you can save a lot of code and hassle by writing a few smart functional tests instead of a ton of unit tests."

I continue to assert that most unit tests are the same type of drudge work that good programmers try to avoid in other scenarios (data entry, text editing, email templates, deploy scripts, etc).
