Ask HN: Test coverage in side projects
Have you guys noticed a difference in the number of tests you are inclined to write for your side project stuff as opposed to at work?
I have noticed that I write significantly fewer for my side projects. Is this normal or am I being lazy/reckless?
- pmontra 8y agoDon't feel alone. I usually have much less time to work on my side projects than on customers projects so I tend to bang things together quickly. And so I write much less tests.
- pizza 8y agoIt's probably worth it if you work on the side project regularly enough for it to occasionally regress in known faulty ways. Otherwise I wouldn't worry about a more low-maintenance approach.
