View salad's Ticket

To help speed things up, we need to improve the speed of our tests, stubbing and mocking out external dependencies as much as possible.

The first culprit would be centered around importing features to Salad, this should be the first port of call

We'll first stub out the retrieval of feature file and limit it 2 a couple to start with.

Refactored specs to speed up the tests.

Made further improvements to /projects/import & projects spec.

Need to look at features/plain/import_a_single_feature.feature

Features now running at

Feature could do with speeding up some more

Added is a copy of the rspec profile, displaying the slowest specs on the above box, we'll focus on improving these tests next.

Im sure these features could be improved some what more but this is a bigger improvement from the speed we were getting initially.

Will move to another milestone.

As a temporary measure we can stub out or feature sync and import based specs. This should go along way to improving the overall speed of our specs.
