This process is something that I think would be of great interest to a variety of teams: * When to throw away old tests * When to create new tests (TDD style, before writing the code that satisfies the test?) * When to refactor existing tests * At what point do you make these decisions? I'd like to encourage you to discuss your approaches along these lines, because I think it would be of great interest across all the WMF dev teams. -Chris _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
