Initial attempt at testing the user class. Still need to test user settings

TBH, tests shouldn't depend on one another, as annoying as it may seem - after all if whatever init works, it will just work the next time
(for reliability and maintainbility; and after all they're unit test - tests of a single unit of work, which can be tested and should be, in isolation as much as possible)

Better? I like the use of @depends as there is no point in doing load if save fails or save if getting/setting fails.
