There have been a ton of articles, conference talks, and heated discussions about engineering best practices. Many of us recognize what we should be doing, even if we don’t actually follow them in practice.
But with the increasing use of AI coding tools, sloppy practices are amplified when we hand the reins to a tool with incomplete direction and verification.
Whether it’s code coverage, ephemeral environments or just stronger types, it’s more critical than ever to use best practices to have more confidence that our software does what we intend.
Steve Krenzel offers a good perspective on his post.
