The groaning sound you hear when someone in your office opens up that legacy code 😅

    This was me today. It was the worst. I had to go through 2,000 lines of legacy unit test code and get each of like 20 tests to work with a component I updated.

    @dfox Sounds to me like the tests weren't designed well. Was each test testing multiple things or something?

    @vinaysshenoy they were designed terribly and pretty much just a gigantic file of crummy tests, many which were pretty repetitive yet used little to no helper methods.

    It was tedious to go through.

    @dfox Better no tests than shitty tests, IMO.
