Blog2017 ≫ Spending the whole day fixing system tests

I've made one small change to some code, and everything uses it, so every test that runs has to be run again and "refixtured" (we use fixtures so we're not testing external things outside the system we are building) and every test that needs refixturing also turns out to need other changes to it... the things that we've fixtured have changed, so everything needs tweaking. Have been doing this all week basically, it is soul destroying...
