Came to say this, never heard this before. I have heard the claim that it improves quality, but even that is debatable. Im sure the most basic claim that can be proven is it often increases test coverage.
- js8 3y agoImprovement in quality is improvement in design, since having less bugs is one of the desired properties of good design.
- bayindirh 3y agoA bad design may work equally well when compared to a good design, given it's patched enough.
- wizofaus 3y agoUnless the bug fixes are so fragile and/or convoluted they make any change in business requirements almost impossible to implement.
- beardedwizard 3y agoTotally disagree. A bad design can pass all tests and appear high quality, then crumble under high load. Even quality is subjective. Most people would assume it means being good at every aspect, but passing tests doesn't not guarantee that.
