    Even though most people don’t enjoy creating unit tests, I really enjoy it. However, when there’s a short deadline, it can make the application development more difficult

      I guess it all depends what test you writing. I like doing backend tests but UI test I just hate them.

  • @kamertonaudiophileplayer847

    Amazon make a wonderful software and I know why now. I am a relatively novice for programming, so do not do unit tests and even do not know how to create unit tests. But I write tests only for multitasking, otherwise I can't conclude it works correctly.

    I didn't take a break for 8+ months. Can relate to the burnout - meditation helps but no substitute for a bit of R and R.

    You can also just use the light filter in mac to reduce blue light, if you don't like wearing your glasses.
    What programming languages are you using, and what IDE?

    ITs are much more tedious than UTs - especially when you need to test handling failures in other processes like loss of network connectivity… My opinion…

    Love your videos so much! I'm also in the engineering field so it's cool to hear your thoughts/experience. When you say you guys aren't deploying code to production but want features to be code complete, does that mean putting out a CR for your team to review but just not deploying that? Or prepping your code so once you guys can deploy, putting out a CR?

    • @imjenncho
      @imjenncho  Před rokem +2

      Aw thanks! And good question! Code complete for my team means all the code implementation is complete and at-least in our pipeline to be tested for prod deployment.

      I use two shots! But if you want more of the milk flavor than I would suggest 1 shot instead. I’ve tried it both ways and love it regardless! 💗
