Quick Cure for the Shame of Untested Software
summary
A three‑part, immediate prescription claims to cure the shame of untested software by attacking time and money objections: dispel theologies — drop testing jargon and just write tests; employ simplicity — start with obvious, tiny unit checks rather than full TDD or deep edge cases; publish results — expose xUnit/PHPUnit or similar XML outputs as a marketing metric like crash ratings. Anecdotes include Ubuntu shipping a broken PHPUnit and contests of 50,000 tests versus 25 proving the value shift.
