Monday morning. Updated my IDE. Updated my browser. Ran npm upgrade. Encountered new bugs. Why can't our industry focus on releasing stable software and shipping updates that reduce bugs without introducing new ones? I thought everyone except for me must be doing 100% test-driven development by now, especially the corporate devs?

    You have decided to use npm. Did you really expect to get something else?

    As a corporate dev, no, no one is doing TDD, not even 50%.
    And even if it was 100% TDD, it doesn’t magically save you from bugs.

    I don't know about TDD but software testing is never robust and doesn't meet the goal of avoiding/reducing regression bugs

    In some cases, bugs are introduced hoping those won't get noticed or they didn't get the attention necessary to be classified as critical bugs to be addressed before releasing

    @retoor QA person walks into a bar and orders 1 beer.
    Then orders 5 beers. Then 9999999 beers. Then -1 beers and finally sqrt(-1) beers.
    Everything is fine.

    Then a normal user walks in and asks the bartender where the restroom is.
    Bar catches fire and burns down.
