#testfirst — Public Fediverse posts

#TIL

I always struggled with #TestFirst #Programming because it requires much discipline to delay new features and concentrate on test cases first.

But while I was working on my #django app #fairdebate I tried out coding the test and then prompt #aider with

👉 "Make test_053 pass." ✨

While the solution was wrong it brought me very close and only little manual tweaking was necessary.

I seems like a promising pattern for AI-supported coding because since I would have to describe what I want anyway, why not funnel this effort in a test case instead of a sophisticated prompt?

Fentanyl is everywhere, and it's deadly. Just 2mg can be fatal making the practice of harm reduction more important than ever.

@arialdo wow. We can do event storming without code, but for everything else, #babysteps and #testfirst . With course clients we now discuss whether we should do a #tdd workshop first, because if ppl are not in the habit of small steps, the end result will not representv the domain nearly as well. And as with all pattens, there is always the risk of forgetting the context and overcomplicating. With #tdd much less.

It's pretty wacky that a modern presentation titled "Design is Testability" doesn't even mention #TestFirst or #TestDrivenDevelopment

look at me, writing failing tests before writing the code 😆 🔴 🟢

Writing tests first doesn't have to be harder than writing them after. In fact, I'm convinced that once you get over the mental threshold of writing tests for code that doesn't exist, it's actually easier.

Less complicated setup since you get to choose the setup and not adapt it to existing code. Also looser coupling which means code that is easier to maintain.

When someone says "#UnitTests make #refactoring harder", my first thoughts are 1. What do you mean when you say "refactoring"? 2. I'm assuming you don't do #TestFirst?

@qcoding @jchyip I've started using #TestFirst more, unless I know I'm talking to other practitioners.

I don't know that the rename was a mistake, but what people *think* they know about TDD is so bad and misinformed that I don't think the term is useful for general audiences.
