If you don't test for it the bug doesn't exist.

...until a disgruntled user comes along.

@D-4got10-01 let's be honest, a significant portion of the code we write has no users.

Exactly.

Never test anything

Have a happy life

@atheist Game Dev seems to be a bit different, though.

@D-4got10-01 There's stuff I know went never used for 3 years cuz the first time I tried it after adding it when someone asked, it errored. The problem had been there since day one. I released it and told the person that asked that it was available and to let me know if there were any issues. They never tried it. Yes I'm a bit salty.

The bug is actually in a superposition of both existing and not, until proven guilty. Or something like that...

Why test for what you don't want to exist?

@atheist I get being mad about a bug you find.

I don't think I have all the info needed to weigh-in more, though.

Thing is, from what I can see in game dev, you interact w/ most of the code in there, most of the time.

I have seen cases, where issues w/ stability haven't been caught either for prolonged periods of time /* 1+ year(s) */ or at all.

Those are fairly rare.
