The most stable codebase I've worked on, at a successful startup that does a great job delivering business value to its customers, didn't have a single automated test during the 7 years I was there.
- DanielBMarkham 6y agoI think with the current style of coding, that doesn't surprise me. Most all of the testing we're doing in code is because we're writing code in far too complex a manner for the value (if any) it is providing. But that's a tough thing to explain to a person that doesn't know any better. We're teaching coding as if it were a stand-alone thing instead of simply a tool to get us other things we want.
