You're a goddamn hero.
And this makes me want to finally read up on some design patterns... I can't always name the ones I use, and I think it would help me think and talk about designs. -
@ihatecomputers I say start at refactoring.guru website. This one was by far the easiest to learn from of all I tried. It's very well structured

Thanks!
My dev dream is to work at a place where work is done the way you described it. I've done a couple of standalone features that way but the rest of the team usually look at me like I'm crazy 😂 Where I'm at now the lead dev doesn't believe in unit tests :( He calls them unnecessary. We have issues every time we deploy to production, hah :d

this month the lead dev was not in and I had to make a new feature. Guess what I did :)
tdd [coverage >90%], a couple of builders, a factory or two, two composites, one decorator, only a few generics - only where really needed. Private fields, not a single @Autowired field [they were fucking my tdd], nicely abstracted integrations, and so on. Everything is writen according to clean code: max 10loc methods, <140col lines, reusable constants and utils, SOLID as a rock, etc.
Due date is next week. Took me 3 weeks to craft it.
Guess who's gonna be piiiiiiiiiiiiisssedd 😁
the best part - I don't even work there, our company was hired for xx hours as helping hands 😁
that's not all. They have like 6 envs and their deployment is all-fucking-manual. Will try to learn how to dockerize that app and deploy it on docker. Gosh I wish I could see his face when he's back 😁
p.S. From ethical point of view, he's the only dev who believes his code is perfect. No other dev in the team agrees. AND he once said: 'it's gonna be my way or no way at all'. So I don't think I did wrong... Did I? :)
