- ldrndll 11y agoI don't think he claimed otherwise. There's a difference between a code base that makes judicious use of tests to validate business logic and one that relies on the test suite just to keep it from falling apart. I've worked on the latter, so I know ;) I'm not making any representations as to whether or not this is true of OpenStack. I honestly wouldn't know.
- agentultra 11y agoI can assure you, as an active technical contributor, that the testing infrastructure in Openstack is verifying business logic, ensuring consistent coding standards, running unit tests and code coverage, and all of the usual activities associated with delivering reliable software. The difference for many projects is the scale at which it is automated thanks to the Openstack Infra and QA teams. Any suggestion that Python code cannot possibly execute without it is an exaggeration.
