This is discovered at https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/8379/diffs#note_116874450 where override shouldn't have overridden anything, but the tests passed.

It's likely that helpers are not included/extended into any classes, thus it's not triggering the tests.

We could maybe create some temporary classes to include them and force them to check it, e.g.

Class.new { include NavHelper }

But I am not sure if this will work or not, and I am not sure how could we iterate through all the helpers.
