Matt Pocock(@mattpocockuk):This is mostly correct, but it assumes that 'unit' means 'the smallest possible unit' Testing larger units has ALWAYS been a good practice - it makes your tests less sensitive to structural changes So not "dead in the water", just software fundamentals coming back around

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
