I plan to write automated system tests, but I don't think there's any way for me to check them in and get use out of them because they require a SolidFire SAN. In other words, I guess I will just have to keep them local (as in just something I run).
So far, I have manual regression tests I run and have noted two breakages in my feature as code has been checked in this week. This just makes me a bit nervous. :) On Thu, Aug 15, 2013 at 1:49 PM, Daan Hoogland <daan.hoogl...@gmail.com>wrote: > H Mike, > > Make sure you write plenty of unit tests for whatever methods you need > for the features you are implementing.
