What software tests you should consider as Never Run tests

There may be tests that were never executed on your project because they simply got lost or forgotten. To avoid such situations we added the Never Run testing metric that will show you test those ones.

the trouble they might cause:

  • every line of code adds to the complexity of a codebase
  • the number of Never Run tests slow down the automated test framework in some extent

What I have to do if I note Never Run tests

If a test adds complexity without adding a valuable safeguard for your functionality, don’t be afraid to delete tests. And don’t feel bad about it. Tests are important, but they are not sacred. Go ahead and delete the ones that aren’t helping.
