Yes, and also functional tests for some things that haven't caused bugs
in the past, but are sorts of things that often do would also be good to
make functional unit tests for (such as, spells and ranged weapons fired
infront of map edges). Also, even for the non-functional unit tests, the
functions will often need a set of data to operate within, and this
would in many cases, mean a map.
