Perryn Fowler has a few words
of wisdom to share on what can and cannot be tested. I especially like
his closing remark.
His remarks are short, so I have reproduced them here in full.
- some things you just can’t test
- Rubbish. Think harder.
- Of course some things are very difficult to test, and in some cases the
effort is not worth it when compared to the amount of risk it would
mitigate - but that is a business decision rather than a purely technical
one.
- You can make this decision a lot easier by not putting important
behaviour in things that are hard to test
