Whenever practical, you should prefer unit tests.

Many tests extend `ESIntegTestCase`, mostly because this is how most tests used
to work in the early days of Elasticsearch. However the complexity of these
tests tends to make them hard to debug. Whenever the functionality that is
being tested isn't intimately dependent on how Elasticsearch behaves as a

improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
incorporate.  Many developers of free software are heartened and
encouraged by the resulting cooperation.  However, in the case of
software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
