For a developer nothing in the world makes him happier than a green build. ( Well of course there are things like Wii, a power book, an iPhone, an Audi A4 – but they all cost..a lot.). There was one suite that was failing the build consistently for the past few days. I could have just commented it out and said to myself – will fix it later. It is as bad as Satyam’s Raju inflating his accounts. Because the commented test will never get fixed ( trust me – it might get deleted but never fixed ) and more functionality will be built on this untested one. It is better to have a failing build than have a green build which just gives a delusion that everything is alright.
Anyway, I fixed the tests – it took some time but got a green build in the end and the world feels alright !
