However i said that already on IRC nobody is taking care on tests but
complain is what you guys are all goo at! Instead of screaming and
whining after a release you should write tests. When looking at <50%
coverage from a test run and @ <5K tests for a beast as big as php
that's a joke. So what to expect? Things change at will becuase we have
nothing to test against until somebody screams after a release....

How did this thread turn into complaining about tests? The complaint was about breaking working code. I don't give a crap about tests. I want my code to work. And, I believe that was the original point of this thread.

Marcus has a point here. People are complaining loudly about bugs being introduced. These bugs would have been found quicker if we had better tests. If every complaint included a nice clean .phpt test file that can be dropped right into the system, things would go a lot smoother. Then the discussions can focus on those tests and how exactly we want something to behave instead of people getting up in arms over things that were obviously not intended to break.
