TDD misconception

Open jsardev opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

I've stumbled upon this extension and my first impression was: Wow! Awesome idea! Unfortunately, it works really weird as of a TDD-helper.

TDD is about iterating on a single unit, so it's completely useless and a waste of time to run whole test suite on a single test/implementation change - that's not TDD, that's regression checking if your change did not affect other parts of the system. IMO it should only work just for the opened file.

Any reasons why this went the way it went? And are there any plans to make it work on single files?

It would really be nice if it works on single files - the currently active file.
