There’s teams of people on the right at my company and while they’re able to build just about anything they’re asked to in wicked time, one look at their codebase makes you want to quit and become a farmer.
Unfortunately I’ve had to do work in their repos before and I would ALWAYS prefer working with someone who aims for 100% test coverage
100% code coverage, integration tests passing. Deploys to prod. NullPointerException at 3am

.000001 Galaxy brain guy:
100% test coverage has been failing for months, the codebase is more debt than tech - send it, nothing matters anymore.
can you send me the bibtex format to quote this when doing my presentation?
You need unit tests for maintenance and refactoring.
Yes it may work, but now is the moment you still understand your code. Write that fucking docs and put in basic unit tests now.
I’m in this meme, and I don’t like it (I’m on the left, aspiring to be in the middle)
I’m in the middle and I don’t always like it. 100% coverage is mandatory for the industry I work in though. I get that module testing is important but it can be such a chore to work on. I got pulled in to help write tests for another project this month and that is somewhere between watching grass grow and watching paint dry in terms of level of excitement.
I’m in this meme and I don’t like it. I float around depending on what thought crosses the mind of the person above me most recently, so I’ve long since decided to stop caring about such “minor details” :-(.
There’s nothing to test when your data structure can’t represent an invalid state. So many tests are being basic stuff like checking nil & empty lists; basic ADTs can design you out of that whole host of invalid states. Further, if your language only allows side effects at the edges of the application & data types are immutable, you are way less likely to need all these mock utils or get unexpected changes to your data.
And how to test the unit tests?

just do everything in Isabelle and prove correctness, ezpz no tests required
This Isabelle?
This Isabelle
Blockier than I remember
So that’s it, I read its overview, looks really powerful! Also goes way over my head
