When working on #goodenoughtesting, I keep three LLM tabs open: Claude, Codex, and Gemini.
I test each prompt against all three to catch where instructions break down. When they disagree, that's where I focus as I want to reliable generate tests.
Adding Amp to the mix soon.
Yesterday I talked with @onurozer about the #goodenoughtesting workshop and where to take it next.
One thing became clear: I need to better communicate what problem it solves and for which teams it works best.
Not just build more content, but explain the value more clearly.
Preparing first workshop for an in-house training session for a company about Reliable Test Case Generation with AI, part of #GoodEnoughTesting
This will be about the Test Strategy, a document that will be useful for both agentic AIs and individual contributors
If you're still chasing 100% test coverage, stop.
You're wasting time and still missing the bugs that count.
Axiom 1: You can’t test everything.
Test what breaks trust.
That’s smart testing.

Most testing advice sounds great until you try it on a real project.
That’s why I use 4 axioms of testing that hold up in real-world codebases:
1. You can’t test everything
2. You can’t prove it’s bug-free
3. Start early
4. Bias is real
Ask this before writing a test:
**“What’s the purpose of this test in this context?”**
If it doesn’t verify, protect, or document behavior/specs why write it?

Effective testing isn’t about writing more tests.
It’s about testing what matters and that means understanding risk.
Not all bugs are equal. Not all tests are worth it.

Over half the workshop is booked. Time to finalize details, review exercises, and trim content to allow more discussion.
There are already five participants registered for the next #GoodEnoughTesting workshop, which will take place next week.
There are 15 places in total, but I might close the registration at 10 people because this is a new version of the workshop, and I want to have time for feedback.
Just refactored the 404 and 500 pages of #GoodEnoughTesting website to be a bit more in line with the topic :)
