I have problem with applying a test driven development as It takes too long time and effort for the kind of applications that I develop as an application developer (working alone)
However, after a while., also my applications become so complicated that changing one part has effect on other parts, i.e correcting one bug, often generates new bugs.
I am therefore looking for some kind of lazy testing approach with a scaffolding technique for generating test code, based on running each action and method with same combination of valid in- and outdata. I think it would be possible to develop at least simple test in that way but I have not found any when googling for them.
I very simple example would be to generate tests of the six generic actions in each controllers according to e.g this template
test "should get index" do get :index assert_response :success assert_not_nil assigns(:posts)end
Although this is a very simple test it would be better than nothing.
One could also try to analyse a log file to find the valid in and out data of each action and method used
Do anyone know of other attempts to do what I described here?
Do you think it is possible to develop generators that accomplish this kind of lazy testing ?
Would it be worthwhile do make such testings ?
