Your tests are more important than linting & static analysis (which can only find a subclass of errors, not problems with your actual program logic). Tests are as important as the implementation itself (all that matters is that the code meets the requirement — how it’s implemented doesn’t matter at all unless it’s implemented poorly). + +Unit tests combine many features that make them your secret weapon to application success: + + 1. Design aid: Writing tests first gives you a clearer perspective on the ideal API design. + 2. Feature documentation (for developers): Test descriptions enshrine in code every implemented feature requirement. + 3. Test your developer understanding: Does the developer understand the problem enough to articulate in code all critical component requirements? + 4. Quality Assurance: Manual QA is error prone. In my experience, it’s impossible for a developer to remember all features that need testing after making a change to refactor, add new features, or remove features. + 5. Continuous Delivery Aid: Automated QA affords the opportunity to automatically prevent broken builds from being deployed to production. + +Unit tests don’t need to be twisted or manipulated to serve all of those broad-ranging goals. Rather, it is in the essential nature of a unit test to satisfy all of those needs. These benefits are all side-effects of a well-written test suite with good coverage. + +“What are you testing?” +=========================================== + + 1. What component aspect are you testing? + 2. What should the feature do? What specific behavior requirement are you testing? + +************** +Quelques liens +************** + + * `Django factory boy `_ \ No newline at end of file
