The Silent Regression
A developer asks Cursor or Claude Code to fix an auth bug. The build passes. The PR is approved.
- Skipped suites:
it.skip()added to 3 test files. Critical edge cases never run. - Type evasion: Strict types suppressed with
as anyand// @ts-ignore. - Thrashing loops: 8 commits in 3 minutes with vague messages ("fix", "try again", "wip").
- Outcome: Silent regressions hit production despite 100% green CI.
