How Test Coverage Metrics Hide Real Risk

View show details

Lucas and Luna unpack the dangerous gap between line coverage and bug detection. Using a real-world case from a payments startup that hit 95% coverage yet still suffered a catastrophic production failure, they explain why coverage percentages can mislead teams into false confidence. They explore the difference between coverage of code paths versus coverage of behaviors, introduce the concept of mutation testing as a truth-check, and share practical heuristics for measuring what actually matters. Listeners walk away knowing how to audit their own test suites for genuine risk reduction rather than vanity metrics. No clickbait, just a sharp, specific 10-minute conversation for anyone who writes, manages, or depends on software tests. #TestCoverage #MutationTesting #SoftwareTesting #QA #TestingMetrics #CodeCoverage #BehaviorDrivenDevelopment #BugDetection #Payments #ProductionFailures #FalseConfidence #TestQuality #SoftwareEngineering #Tech #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Technology #ContinuousTesting Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
