AI is helping people write code. \u00a0
Tests are one of those things that some people don't like to write.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n
Can AI play a role in creating automated software tests? \u00a0
Well, yes. But it's a nuanced yes. \u00a0<\/p>\n
Anthony Shaw comes on the show to discuss the topic and try to get AI to write some test for my very own cards project.<\/p>\n
We discuss:<\/p>\n
The promise of AI writing your tests for youDownsides to not writing tests yourselfBad ways to generate testsGood ways to ask AI for help in writing testsTricks to get better results while using copilot and other AI tools<\/p>\n
