I really am not trying to be a pain about this "real world" thing -- think about trauma nurses and MASH surgeons. I have 2 friends that are trauma nurses who fly on rescue helicopters to car and motorcycle crashes (or occasionally a military location). They do not do things the same was as regular hospital nurses, and never will. That is not a people management problem. One of them is literally a "seasoned vet" of the National Guard.
In my current project (which runs 24x7, like most things in my multi-decade experience, and for which I am "on call"), I have not found a single problem using programmed tests. Sure I need to add some, but all of the real problems have been found by running "battlefield stress" tests -- launching it 10,000 times rapidly to find, for instance, that the cloud vendor will sometimes unceremoniously kill the process at a random point in the program and restart it. The Agile Manifesto is all about cycling on working code. My belief is that every cycle does not need test processes. Add them over time, when the dust occasionally settles. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
