Thorsten Ball(@thorstenball):I'll say this: I've gotten more out of using orbs and asking agents "test this e2e & give me irrefutable proof it works" than out of 80% of tests I've written and ran over the last 15 years. It's truly remarkable that we can now ask machines: "Did you manually test it?"

I agree with @thorstenball, I think unit tests are dead in the water. The ones the models write are terrible, at best just doubling total LOC. Inverting the testing approach - heavy e2e/black box/golden master, reaching for lower levels only if necessary, works better for me
