alt Hacker News>The output of code isn't just the code itself, it's the product. The code is a means to an end.
I’ll bite. Is this person manually testing everything that one would regularly unit test? Or writing black box tests that he does know are correct because of being manually written?
If not, you’re not reviewing the product either. If yes, it’s less time consuming to actually read and test the damn code
I mostly ignore code, I lean on specs + tests + static analysis. I spot check tests depending on how likely I think it is for the agent to have messed up or misinterpreted my instructions. I push very high test coverage on all my projects (85%+), and part of the way I build is "testing ladders" where I have the agent create progressively bigger integration tests, until I hit e2e/manual validation.
