AHA Testing 💡

Read Original

This article discusses the AHA (Avoid Hasty Abstraction) programming principle as it applies to writing tests. It argues against the extremes of ANA (Absolutely No Abstraction) and overly DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) code, using a detailed example of an ExpressJS route handler test to illustrate the problems with minimal abstraction and the importance of finding a middle ground for test maintainability.
