The Forced Testing of Code

Name: Anonymous 2010-07-15 20:32

How many /prog/riders practice TDD?

No, I prefer to masturbate to porn.

Seriously, I use TDD only when I'm writing a compiler.

Tried it, not convinced I got better results or even more complete test suites that way

It's a method of testing that's designed to be a closely integrated part of software design process. The point is that testing will get done all the time. It's OK if you manage to achieve similar results from other methods of testing. In the end, it's one method of improving the software to be delivered.

I test my code as I program.
Just finished a function?
Rigorous testing time!

Is there any possible input using this datatype where it will get caught up? or not produce the correct results? at what points does the function and all of its loops stop and can those conditions be achieved in any undesired foreseeable way?

If you're developing a framework or library to be used by others in ways you may not be entirely sure, unit testing is quite beneficial.

If you're just whipping together a small application without a lot of backend code, TDD is less important.

Two words: regression testing. If not done properly your code will go down the shitter twice as fast.

I have only proved it correct, not tried it

And 99% of the time, it works perfectly on the first try.
