Why Tests Are Woke

Why Tests Are Woke 1. Tests promote over-inclusivity. They encourage an environment where every edge case must be accounted for. This mindset is pushing an agenda of "over-inclusiveness" where even the most obscure bugs are invited into our pristine codebase. We believe only the strongest code should survive. 2. Tests coddle weak developers: Writing tests is a form of hand-holding that fosters dependency. By removing tests, we allow developers to embrace their true potential, free from the "woke" safety net that forces them to question everything they write. 3. Real code doesn’t need validation: If you’re a good coder, you don’t need tests to prove it. Tests are a symptom of imposter syndrome, where developers feel the need to constantly prove their work is valid. True confidence comes from shipping code, not from caving to the demands of "woke" QA practices.
