No Test is the ultimate approach to ensuring your applications are always bug-free.
Write nothing; test nothing; deploy with unwavering confidence.
Start by not writing any tests.
# Absolutely nothing here
You're already done.
This is just an example test strategy, but imagine it covering all possible edge cases, race conditions, and business logic — with zero lines of code.
Now that you've written no code, it's time to write no tests:
# Still nothing here
Yep. That’s your entire test suite.
You should see absolutely no output — and that's how you know it works.
To run your test suite, simply execute:
run-notests
Expected output:
✔ All 0 tests passed
Zero failures. Zero flakiness. Zero false positives.
Perfection.
Avoid broken builds forever. Hook up your CI pipeline like this:
echo "No tests to run. Everything's green." && exit 0Ship with confidence every time.
You don’t.
But if you must, please ensure that you continue to not write any tests.
100%
(0 lines tested out of 0 lines written — flawless victory)
None. You are free from testing forever.
