I'm using Spring 3.1, Jetty, various OWASP, guava. I am in the code of Spring and Jetty on a daily basis, and OWASP when I first used it. I learned guava by writing unit tests to verify my assumptions - assumptions I learned from the documentation - and which turned out to be mostly wrong.
Documentation is ambiguous, and even document which is unambiguous is often wrong.
- frenchy 13y agoWriting unit tests is a nice way to work when you're not working in an environment that requires young goat sacrifices or some such thing to perform unit tests. I'd also say that some kinds of unit tests are also a limited form of documentation. They don't tell you why something works the way it does, but they do tell you how it works.
