Fixing Bugs The Corporate Way

Adding a new feature to legacy code is like strapping a time-traveling DeLorean to a steam locomotive. Sure, both technically move forward, but one's from 1885 and the other's hitting 88mph. The resulting explosion isn't a bug—it's a feature. The real miracle is that your commit message didn't just say "I'm sorry."

Software testers don't just find bugs—they actively hunt them down with maniacal glee. This poor homeowner is experiencing what developers face daily: a relentless barrage of edge cases designed to break everything. From SQL injection attempts ( DROP TABLE candy ) to buffer overflow tests ( 3333 Musketeers ) to that terrifying ${rm -rf /} command that would delete your entire filesystem—this tester is determined to crash your Halloween just like they crash your code in production. And ringing the doorbell 2^32-1 times? That's just testing the integer limit before overflow. The house sinking into the ground is the only reasonable response to such QA terrorism.

Content ?php header ("Content-type: texthtml; charsetutf-8"); This is a warning to any poor soul who may have to deal with this code. I took over this criminal piece of chaos from a monkey named Joel who I assume had been given a typewriter by Mephistopheles himself. For reasons I have yet been unable to fathom, he decided to patch together this thing using a BaseX setup hardwired into an unfixably broken Manjaro VM, queried by a handwritten plate of uncommented PH spaghetti fit to feed an army of people with a serious death wish, without any framework or CMS. The very long BaseX script, very long PH presenter and very long XSLT stylesheet mostly perform the same heuristic document structuring for different components and are supposed to produce compatible results, but I bet they have mismatches somewhere. Since Prof. T just wanted a few small functional enhancements, I decided to just patch it and keep the general setup. Unless you were hired to correct some spelling mistakes, DO NOT FOLLOW IN MY STEPS. Putting up with this simulation of how a goldfish would design a system has literally given me CLINICAL DEPRESSION. This is not an exaggeration, I am writing this after a prolonged medical therapy - mostly successful, thanks for asking, but not fun. I wouldn't wish this code on anybody who isn't a manager at Oracle or Facebook, and therefore give you this sincere advice: Nuke this. Take the XSLT if you must, and then nuke the app and recreate it in Django or whatever works for you. I would do it myself, but I risked a relapse simply by opening this file again to write this comment. Dear brother or sister, I wish you all the luck and strength in the world and hope it will be enough.

Content SO IN TEST-DRIVEN DEVELOPMENT WE WRITE A TEST BEFORE WRITING A NEW FEATURE BUT TESTS USE EXISTING FEATURES, FOR WHICH WE WRITE TESTS. BUT THOSE TESTS USE OTHER FEATURES, FOR WHICH.. I SEE WHERE THIS IS GOING LET'S ASK THE EXPERTS WHAT SHOULD GO FIRST COT CO THE EXPERTS ASK THE EXPERT
