— Okay, looks like we see developing very differently
Also, things like testing and analyzers should be a must in every project. You might not agree, but most developers do agree
— Sounds autistic
— How about cases where it's not possible to do testing on target?
— ^this
— And. even dumber example, you write a tool that parses some text and just outputs it in another format, the whole tool is 100 lines, does this really need testing????
— Why are you trying to use such a serious topic as an insult? I'm not autistic, but even if I were, what's the matter?
— Or analyzing or automated builds or any of that shit like that
— Of course it is good practice to do unit testing, it always is, but doing unit testing is also not good if you first develop the code and then the tests; you write tests that will pass. Some other people should write tests for your program. Or then write tests before developing
— Of course small projects should not be considered here
— I'm interested in those cases
— If you're just doing a proof-of-concept, of course you don't need testing, but it's not the case I'm talking about
