I've made a small change to fail the test when the html parser can't
parse the html:

class Test::Rails::ViewTestCase
  def html_document
      @html_document ||= HTML::Document.new(@response.body, true)
  end
end

(basically the second arg to HTML::Document.new says to throw an
exception when parsing fails).  It doesn't catch everything (like it
doesn't care if you have a <td> that's not in a <tr>), but it does
catch obvious things like mismatched open/close tags.
