As I like to re-test my 300+ pages applications for a syntax error
after a refactoring. I can use my time better, you know.
Ever hear of "continuous integration"?! ;) Commit your changes,
let the server run the tests while you reply to e-mails.
Of course, there are a lot of Javascript examples too, and that
doesn't mean Javascript is maintainable or reliable
There you go blaming the language again. Remember, it's the
programmers that create bugs, not the language. Language matters, a
lot, don't get me wrong. One of the most fun jobs I've ever had was
me coding in COBOL, I kid you not.... and lots of VMS DCL scripting
which was loads of fun. The system was architected extremely well,
including the development processes of revision control (it's built
into the VMS file system. We had scripts around it to manage our
desired process of a REAL and TEST environment), issue tracking,
releases (making a tape to send to clients), billing, etc. I've
never experienced and environment where things ran as smoothly as it
did there... in COBOL and DCL.
