- humanrebar 9y agoWhy is testability important? How do we know if something is correct? The point is to be convincing to a rational mind. It's not a persuasion contest, no. The evidence should speak for itself. But it needs to speak to an audience. Otherwise it would be a self indulgent exercise and not a corporate one.
