Next, build an architectural safety net. Use ๐๐ฒ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฐ๐ ๐๐ป๐ท๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป + ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ผ๐ฐ๐ผ๐น๐ to define clear, verifiable boundaries. When mocking, always use ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐=๐๐๐๐. A mock that doesn't know the real object's interface is a test that lies.

The solution starts with a mindset shift: ๐ง๐ฒ๐๐ ๐๐ผ๐ป๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐๐, ๐ก๐ผ๐ ๐๐บ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป. Your tests should verify the "what," not the "how." This makes them resilient to the constant refactoring that AI-assisted development encourages.

Is your AI coding assistant just a fancy autocomplete? ๐ค We're on the cusp of something bigger: Agentic Coding. This isn't just about AI suggesting code, but autonomously tackling complex development tasks. #AgenticCoding #AI #DevTools. ๐1/6

My take: LLMs won't overhaul how we write software, but they'll definitely boost areas like no-code, empowering non-engineers. Pink glasses on: the tedious stuff gets easier to automate! ๐ #AI #SoftwareDevelopment #LowCode.
