sariel84473yI hope you have covered all your test cases, because if not it can't be trusted.
Also, don't make changes to the codebase because you will need to make sure your tests line up with the changes.
Or... You can just not trust. -
If only we treated many of our scientific theories that way. There are too many untestable theories.

sariel84473y@solex TDD is "a way" to do development.
Don't back yourself into a corner by listening to the lie that says you HAVE to follow TDD.
That's like the Scrumbags who say "You have to follow THESE rules to be following true Scrum."
Your team and product evolves over time, so your process and definition of done must as well. There's never a cookie cutter answer, and anyone who tells you otherwise is selling snake oil. -
@Demolishun do you have an example? Almost all major scientific theories have been proven through multiple repeat experiments.
This is not joke but fact
More than a year ago I write code without tests, I must confess its frustrating trying to debug without proper testing. testing is painful I must admit but you can't compare the confident you have on your code with the pains when writing tests.
About a year ago I wrote a whole software without tests and this words from a friend hunted me everyday till date he said, what cannot be tested cannot be trusted. Wise words.
