I bought Philipps testing course (which he'll advertise in the workshop) and can only highly recommend it to everyone!

Writing test code takes longer, but it saves time later on
* Less bugs
* Easier to modify and enhance the codebase (because the tests are like a living specification)
* Better code design (having to make your code testable to begin with enforces that)

A professional programmer who says they have no time for writing tests is like a surgeon who has no time for washing hands.
Yes, that time-saving doctor will perform more surgeries in the long run - but that's not exactly a good thing in this case

Brother right now i took full stack developer course.
After i get a job i want to move to Apple ecosystem.
Is it easy to practice coding in windows or mac for a developer.

I expect you to not remove this comment.

This message of yours might destroy the self-confidence of the developers. You always assume the watcher is a beginner and completely forgot you have reached a level that's beyond the beginner recently. Take a look at your Kotlin playlist or old videos. You were a beginner even if you hate to admit it. You always say I have more than 10 years of experience, well that's might be true, but does it matter? I have more than 15 years of experience, and I have seen developers reach a level that's way beyond me in 3-4 years.

I don't mean any hate by this message. It's just that I'm very disappointed. You were my favorite developers once, I will try not to judge you though what is the purpose of all of that? You constantly say or assume the watcher is less than you even if you don't mean it, like

If you're a beginner, you're probably doing it wrong, 95% of developers don't know this, and the list keeps going.

Destroing the self-confidence of developers to promote your paid courses is not appropriated even if you give them something they don't know.

I clicked the button that say "don't recommend or suggest this change again" many times though it seems there is a bug that always show me your videos.

Did you even know all the developer perspectives? They might have reasons to avoid testing.

It should be more like:

Write tests and manually test them to make sure they properly succeed or fail (usually very quick)

Or

Writing tests is slower for a code that's not designed to be testable or if it's your first time. Writing features along with the tests directly save you a lot of time since you don't need a lot of refactoring, tests are longer than the code itself though it's usually easier to write in my opinion, it's more like writing a complex algorithm that solve a unique problem vs writing a vlog about your life which is longer.

Or:

At least write functionalities that can have bugs very easily for complex algorithms where things can go wrong by very simple changes

I don't have the best example, but it's much better than your example. If you're the one who watches the video and not the one that makes it and earns money by ads.

I hope you consider a more professional approach and useful for both you and the watcher.
