The Programmer's Paradox

MARCH 16, 2023

Clearly, the best way to test any software is with fully automated ‘system’ testing that is thorough enough that it can be used for full regression testing. In its fullest form, it is at least as much code as the thing it is going to test, and you have to build a custom version of it, every time, for every system. But it got worse.

The biggest is Test-Driven Development (TDD) , thanks to Kent Beck and his Xtreme Programming crew. TDD says you write tests before writing any code, because this pushes you to design the code in ways that are testable, with APIs that are usable. TDD is a great design practice. But which should drive our development?

With TDD, you run the tests as often as one or two times every minute. If they don’t, you won’t be able to get feedback within 1-5 seconds, and that’s crucial for the TDD loop to work effectively. Because external systems can change or fail at any time, the real answer is “monitoring.” (See Simulate Nonlocal Dependencies.

At least in theory, test driven development (TDD) is widely practiced among professional programmers. This is understandable, but we need to be clear: if AI systems are going to write code, that code must be tested exhaustively. If AI systems write the tests, do those tests themselves need to be tested?
