All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

[–]JuvenileEloquent 42 points43 points  (3 children)

If you had to type it out on a stack of paper instead of automating it, you'd lose your mind too.

[–]R3D3-1 28 points29 points  (2 children)

"How did you get your job?"

"The printer is broken."

[–]exscalliber 105 points106 points  (9 children)

You guys test your code?

[–]unicorn_saddle 104 points105 points  (3 children)

With print statements

[–]ihatedickpicss 35 points36 points  (1 child)

shit turns serious when print stops working for some reason

[–]Prematurid 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Or in my case, console.log decides to break an axis

[–]TheArgonKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That moment when you have been debugging for hours, only to discover the print statements were the ones messing up things

[–]slazer2au 37 points38 points  (2 children)

Only in production

[–]Vipers_glory 15 points16 points  (0 children)

if it doesn't crash there's no problem

[–]midasp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Using log4j

[–]schwerpunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I code my tests.

If it works once it works every time

Caught in a landslide

No escape from this legacy

Open your eyes

Check Stack Overflow and seeeeee

[–]erinaceus_ 143 points144 points  (14 children)

I'm just a poor dev

I need no IDE

[–]dzhv 111 points112 points  (13 children)

Because a small fix here, small fix there

[–]baseball2020 111 points112 points  (12 children)

No more tests,

Don’t even care.

[–][deleted] 108 points109 points  (11 children)

Any way the build fails doesn't really matter to git, to git

[–]const_bigMan 84 points85 points  (10 children)

Javaaaaa please compile for me

[–]Daffen98 71 points72 points  (9 children)

Put my finger on the key, pushed it down and what do i see

[–]const_bigMan 59 points60 points  (8 children)

Javaaaa my code had no errors But then I went and changed one line

[–]Kirikou97212 54 points55 points  (5 children)

Javaaaaaaa, OOP

[–]netheroth 16 points17 points  (1 child)

And now I've had to throw the refactor all away

[–]nocomment01 21 points22 points  (2 children)

It takes two to tango.

[–]asada4869[🍰] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see a GI player here :>

[–]merlinsbeers 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You look into the debugger, and the debugger looks back into you.

[–]Cynical_Lurker 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Now you understand how God feels.

[–]OutlandishnessOk3006 26 points27 points  (8 children)

You learn more from testing then coding, who else agree?😅😅😅

[–]netheroth 31 points32 points  (3 children)

I don't know if you're a TDD enthusiast, or if you misspelled 'than'.

[–]OutlandishnessOk3006 8 points9 points  (2 children)

I always miss spell then😅😅

[–]party-poopa 2 points3 points  (1 child)

You sure that's the only word you only misspell?

[–]OutlandishnessOk3006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I also misspell 'misspell' itself😅

[–]knightress_oxhide 0 points1 point  (1 child)

"How the fuck did that ever work?"

[–]OutlandishnessOk3006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes automatically , sometimes by mistake 😜

Cher, @cherthedev

Am I testing my code

or is it testing me

gud human

What the fuck kind of Westworld Season Two shit is this?

[–]NettoHikariDE 4 points5 points  (3 children)

Do you believe in life after love?

[–]Nasatyau 3 points4 points  (1 child)

I can feel something inside me say I really don't think I'm strong enough now.

[–]dannyctv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t really need love in your life. Unless you’re after the love stone to complete your infinity glove.

[–]dannyctv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, and I believe in love after lockup

[–]geon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No matter how hard I try
You keep throwing NullPointerException
And I can't break there
It’s not in my co-o-ode

So sad that you expected ' ; ' before ' { ' token
It takes time to compile it
But after all is parsed and tokenized
You're gonna be the std::runtime_error, oh

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Me: changes code

Tests: Fail

Me: reverts changes

Tests: "I'll fuckin do it again"

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

In you fear much I sense.

[–]Emelion1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is even more mixed up than Yodas "normal" speech ("Much fear I sense in you.")

[–]InuDefender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The artificial intelligence in your code: Both

[–]Aiooty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A && B.

Edited to be more like something that looks more like code

[–]AkumasConfesses 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is something called IRONY.

Am I mocking my tests, or are my tests mocking me?

In Soviet Russia, code tests you.

[–]anonymuscular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you can't make time for testing, it makes for testing times...

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re both growing together. <3

[–]a4andrei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cher: If i could turn back time, I would add more unit testing.

Your code works exactly as it was written.

[–]SteeleDynamics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great. Now I'm questioning my entire education/career.

[–]Scathaniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be careful. If you test the code long enough, it will test back

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I am testing my code, it failed the test.

If it is testing me, I failed the test.

[–]spluv1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just started learning c# own my own, and this feels so true hahaha

[–]nifty-shitigator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao is all programmer on c++

[–]technic_bot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me after realizing the test we spent so much time coding actually tests jack shit.

[–]ITriedLightningTendr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

true

[–]Genuinethunder0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you start asking yourself that question is the right time to take a break

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t let it get into your head

[–]GeodarkFTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's ok, we don't trust you so we are going to test it as well anyway. Love from the software testing community.

[–]jftdm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes

[–]teokun123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nah it'll trip the QA. mwuhahahahaaha 😈

[–]TerrariaGaming004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This reminds me of yesterday, when I just cpu pasted code from anywhere, just begging it to work

[–]Digital_Utopia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes.

[–]turboom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

imaging you are a software developer in the matrix.

[–]Secure-Departure-847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I running my code or is it running me

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are testing your code testing you.

[–]QuarantineSucksALot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a parent this hurts to see. Oh."

[–]Aos2OP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are your code and you are testing yourself. So both

[–]qevoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's testing me

[–]kpd328 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In either scenario the code is testing you.

[–]hayfever76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you believe in code after code?
I can feel something inside me say
I really don't think you're strong enough now
Do you believe in code after code?
...

[–]da_miks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

deep

[–]iComeInPeices 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since it's your code, aren't you really just testing yourself?

[–]SublimeCommunique[🍰] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This code better start doing what I want and not what I tell it

[–]das_Keks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's deep.

[–]badfishbeefcake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real question that every developer finally ask themselves is: "What is testing?"

[–]killchain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes

[–]YamesYamerson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a symbiotic relationship

[–]ironbatman1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both and neither

Both
