I have literally never written such a test in a rapid prototyping context.
- norman784 3y agoWhen you are prototyping you change code here and there, so a type system helps in that regard and I consider type system as a kind of test. So by having that built in, you need to write less tests, but AFAIK python has an optional type system, not sure how that works, but I suppose it would help in that regard.
- TylerE 3y agoIf find that exactly the situation where a type system is intrusive, not helpful.
