@thedavidmeister I did in fact mean clojure.spec
well look, i don't see that many clients writing their own tests
so kudos for that at least 🙂
I already have a reference implementation with every function documented and specced out, so the job is just modifying the structure of those slightly and writing new grammar rules in Instaparse
so that's why I was looking for someone to do it on the cheap, as I think it should be a fairly mechanical process
yeah but you've heard the old story about the doctor that charged $10 for the cut and $990 for knowing where to cut? 😉
I got a few people applying for the ad so we'll see how it goes, I will learn something new in any case
like i said, it may well be suitable for someone junior
but i'll share with you that i have had experiences in the past where i've been on a tight deadline
reached out to contractors to help take the load off, they underestimated the work required because they didn't have the skills
then i ended up needing to do more work because i had to fix what they did and it was even closer to dday >.<
yeah, luckily the deadline for this is job is not so tight, but I have other stuff I need to get done, so I figured it would be nice to get something else done in parallel
in that case you might be OK
it either works out and you're ahead, or you do it yourself anyway
i recommend you set aside time to review their code though
making tests pass doesn't = correct code
since it should reduce the amount of feedback the person working on the problem needs from the delegater
i'm not a TDD person, but i 100% agree that automated tests are invaluable for growing a dev team and keeping your sanity
there's simply no way you can achieve the same thing in a reasonable timeframe with docs and manual code review alone
also, if you find someone great at clojure who works for $20 an hour, send me their details 😉
i've got tons of work to send that person
