183: The Testing Paradox


Listen Later

How do you know what to test when you don't even know how to write the code that you need to test? This is a paradox that many developers find themselves in daily.

In this episode Donn talks about his strategy for dealing with unknowns in programming, namely around testing and how to figure out how to write tests for new code that might be difficult, unfamiliar or even legacy code.
