The interesting thing about the helpers is that I overrode the delivered Rails helpers. Like `text_field` and `date_field`. It was an experiment that I expected it to come back and bite me, but it worked out well. I switched to Phlex midstream and everything just worked.

When writing tests with Minitest, I find myself missing RSpec's context blocks. Using multiple test classes lets me limit the scope of setup or helper methods. How do you handle this? Multiple test classes per file? Multiple test files per class under test? Any conventions here?
