Games are likely to benefit significantly from unit tests: architecture is complex and likely to be improved by adding clean boundaries and layers for the sake of testability; supporting automation is likely to enable useful features (e.g. deterministic simulations); tests are likely to be meaningful and important.
- HWR_14 5y agoHave you developed games at all, or are you just speaking from an armchair?
- kelseyfrog 5y agoAs a gamedev who writes unit tests, I agree with GP. Games benefit from unit tests. That, however, doesn't change the systemic incentives that prevent tests from being written. The ways that gamedev is budgeted/funded is a more important factor than more tests = a more stable/less buggy game.
