Ok, I will do.

I liked. The tests are cleaner.

Following your idea, the hashes table can be used to set up a default
value to test? This will simplify the things.

Currently some tests need to know the returned value of database and
assert this with the tests value. Using a hash table, the values can
stay in one point. This way is more convenient to maintain.

What you think?
