Does it okay if I never use mix test? I am currently developing app but never try to use mix test, because some of code I made custom in lib folder, sometime when i try make account like mix phx.gen.auth Accounts User users, i try to made custom in the code. but when try make mix test some failure …

Maybe, I don’t understand what are you asking. If you don’t want to write test, you can avoid to run mix test. The failing tests that you are showing have a pretty clear error message and should be easy to fix them in you want. Try to explain better your problem. Thank you.

When you generate anything with Phoenix, it generates code in lib and tests for that code in test. Naturally, changing the code will cause tests relying on that code to fail. Update your tests or, if you must, delete the failing tests so that at least the remaining ones can be useful.

Tests are written so you’re sure you’re delivering working code. If you’re one of the gods who know their code works without tests then don’t run them.

Working code is optional, getting paid is the important part :joy: .

Don’t forget that not everyone is coding for professional reasons. Also automated tests are not the only form of testing. So even with automated tests being a useful tool they’re by no means generally required. To answer the question though: Yes phoenix cannot automatically adjust tests to take aut…

I mean I don’t disagree, but on the other hand it depends on the context. I’ve for a long time worked on a project, which had (and still has) not much time sensitivity and also not much scale. For quite a bit in the beginning this ran on a system without automated tests (a constraint of the underlyi…

[image] LostKobrakai: So for sure there are many ways where skipping testing can turn on you, but I try to not discredit other paths. I didn’t intend to discredit it, sorry if it sounded that way. And, as I work for a telecom nowadays I get it that not everything can be neatly put into auto…

Even in hobby code at one point you want to make sure the thing works, no? Manual testing does not scale.
