More on testing

Posted Fri, 20 Oct 2006 17:31:44 GMT

A guy said something which sounded a bit odd to me the other day. We were in this training course for something called Agitator, which is supposed to help you test better. Anyway, he said that ninety percent of the companies he’s visited as a consultant had started off using JUnit for unit testing, but then abandoned it because the tests were difficult to maintain.

Anyway, it might have just been part of the salespitch (he was quite heavy on the selling) but I think it is either untrue, aor if it is true, is totally lame.

I can’t believe people just stop testing, because it’s too difficult. Is it possible that most companies out there really are in the stone age? I know a few, but ninety percent?
