I worked with a guy who was so obsessed with testing he never even bothered to ask what the feature or problem the code was to solved
He happily and condescendingly told every else how much they sucked because he had 1000% test coverage
When he released he had tons of bugs because his code wasn’t going what it was supposed to
His answer: yelling at product and tech leads for not being clear
The rest of us had tests but spent as much time asking clarifying questions
The guy above is one of the reasons I just lost all interest in software. This was a major FAANG company and his smooth talking continues today with management none the wiser because “he has the tests” Arby’s
