Breaking Down Tasks
Something missing from this series on estimation, until now, has been a discussion of how to “break down” a project into a well-defined task list. I’d not previously written about this because, to me, it’s largely intuitive. But it isn’t for everyone, so this post fills the gap, and explains in detail how I break down projects into a task list.

How to Measure Your Type Coverage | Tomas Votruba
When we come to a new code base, we look for a code quality metric that will tell us how healthy the code base is. We can have CI tools like PHPStan and PHPUnit. PHPStan reports missing or invalid types, and PHPUnit reports failing tests.
But how do we know if 10 passing or 100 passing tests is enough? What if there are over 10 000 cases we should test?

Tips for optimizing integration tests
While unit tests are known for their speed compared to integration tests, the latter offer heightened confidence in the system’s functionality. Thus, avoiding integration tests is not advisable; instead, it’s crucial to strike a balance by writing tests at an appropriate level to ensure high confidence in the codebase. Achieving this equilibrium between time efficiency and confidence is paramount. Rapid feedback is essential for a smooth workflow, and today, I’ll share concise tips to enhance the efficiency of your integration tests. The effort invested is worthwhile, as swift feedback is indispensable for seamless operations, and each minute of improvement is magnified by the frequency of executions and the number of developers in the company.
