The Weird and The Wonderful

   

The Weird and The Wonderful forum is a place to post Coding Horrors, Worst Practices, and the occasional flash of brilliance.

We all come across code that simply boggles the mind. Lazy kludges, embarrassing mistakes, horrid workarounds and developers just not quite getting it. And then somedays we come across - or write - the truly sublime.

Post your Best, your worst, and your most interesting. But please - no programming questions . This forum is purely for amusement and discussions on code snippets. All actual programming questions will be removed.

Also, most of this codebase is written for being hard to test. One of the thing I am changing.
I'd expect a logger to be some independent item, or even framework.

Though I was not planning to using test every single method or allegedly trivial ones... nor every single parameter... (more than a bazillion possible combination there)
Depending on how large the code-base is, testing everything is rather unrealistic. And yes, brownfields are the prime source for material for the Weird & Wonderfull forum here Smile | :)
