You work somewhere where the tests don't always fail???

[-] floofloof@lemmy.ca 64 points 4 months ago

Ha, losers - tests can't fail if you don't have any tests.

Why write tests when you should be writing more features the business needs now but will never use?

[-] Auth@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

a bug? No problem we will just fix it in the next release. loop for eternity.

Have you tried rerunning them all day until they pass? 😄

Would you look at that - the pipeline is green now! Quick everybody, merge your stuff while it's stable (/s) (sadly a true story tho)

You just guessed my job lol

I mean what's the point of your test if they fail. It's already bad enough that one of our test is flacky. To be fair I am working in a company that does a lot of system safety and a lot of our stuff isn't just tested, it's mathematicaly proven.

Shit! You got deadlines, and managers or customers piling in? Yeah, they don’t pass, but who cares! The code works….probably! Ship it!
