Escaping the Spaghetti: How to Test Untestable Codebases

Everyone wants reliable software. But nobody wants to test messy legacy code. Today, Lewis Campbell from Outdata joins the show to share a practical approach for bringing deterministic simulation testing to existing systems. We get into why React components are terrible for business logic, and why front end static typing stops non-determinism at the door. We also take on non-tech aspects, like the politics of updating old code bases, the danger of hiding data conflicts, and how to ease your team into property-based testing. There’s even an Internet-hungry sheep named Angus.
