What "other kinds of testing" do you do instead then? How do you make sure the code is testable by those other tests?
Often people fall back on manual testing, which is often slow, unreliable and incomplete. And certain things might not even be testable if the system hasn't been designed to allow it.
- kelnos 7y agoFunctional and integration testing, mostly. I guess I'm assuming we're talking about unit testing specifically here, so I'm considering functional and integration testing as separate items. Manual testing is terrible. I'll occasionally engage in that, but only as an extremely-short-term measure when I'm (again) not convinced my interfaces are stable enough yet to write unit tests.
