alt Hacker News> This all started because I was contractually obligated to write unit tests for a codebase with hundreds of thousands of lines of code and go from 0% to 80%+ coverage in the next few weeks - seems like something Claude should do.
Is your client ok with this? Are the tests any good?

Honestly, this is crazy. I have to laugh…
If left to its own devices, Claude will resort to writing passable looking BS as tests pretty quickly when the going gets tough e.g. if it has to interface with stateful real world systems and its tests struggle to pass
