I ran across a horrible anti-pattern today — JUnit test class methods called “doNotTest…” I think I’ll call them
Eunuch tests. It’s pretty clear that either a) the team is not doing TDD because they can’t figure out how to test
the code they already wrote or b) some “refactoring” wasn’t a refactoring but instead a code word for “dangerous
unknown swath of changes to code”.
I don’t know whether to laugh or cry, but it’s Friday, so I choose to laugh today.
