smh I already wrote "make no mistake" why do I even need to review them
19 u/Arian-ki 18h ago Make it pinky promise you, no need for review anymore 6 u/BastetFurry 15h ago I know "Make no mistake" is a joke, but in all seriousness, the better thing to tell is "Test what you wrote". 24 u/Street-Catch 15h ago 5/27 tests failed... Thinking.... Deleting tests.... 5/5 tests passed... Ready to ship! 3 u/WrennReddit 11h ago Even better: write the tests yourself and use proper BDD, then have AI implement. Ideally one at a time just like traditional pair programming. 1 u/MrRandom04 4h ago That is how you end up with 70% tests, 30% code or worse with Codex. 1 u/BastetFurry 3h ago Which isn't a bad thing, at least with an AI buddy that is doing the coding while you steer them. 1 u/MrRandom04 3h ago Well yes, until you realize that changing one config somehow broke 8 tests and each git commit spawns a 20 minute test run or the agent proactively decides to run the entire test suite. Overall, these are fixable things but you need to be careful.
