True! I'll update the new account tests to have a default (staging)
but allow overriding with an env var. If that solves my use-case (as
we shouldn't have too many of these I think, and they should be
standard across all tests in a test run right?). So far I've only
found GMAIL_PASSWORD and BASE_URL.
@dsowen: using simple env vars would even enable you to define
profiles very easily:
$ source staging_profile
or
$ ./set_staging_
or whatever?
