Junior dev walks in all starry-eyed about the company having their own testing framework like it's some kind of Silicon Valley flex. Meanwhile, senior dev's face says "I've seen things you wouldn't believe... attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion... and 10,000 lines of undocumented custom testing code that nobody dares to touch." Nothing screams "we made questionable decisions in 2012 and now we're stuck with them forever" quite like a homegrown testing framework. Sure, NUnit and xUnit exist, but why use battle-tested industry standards when you can maintain your own special snowflake framework that only three people understand, two of whom no longer work here? The junior thinks it's innovation. The senior knows it's a maintenance nightmare wrapped in technical debt with a bow made of regret.
