Why Unit Tests Fail, Even When they Pass?

About the Talk Why Do Unit Tests Fail, Even When They Pass? In this insightful DevDay session, Abhijit Sonawane challenged long-held assumptions about testing and explored what truly makes a test effective. Drawing from years of experience, he examined common pitfalls—like clean code rules gone wrong, overloaded test cases, and misleading fixtures—and revealed how tests can evolve from fragile checks into reliable safeguards. 📌 This talk covered: Why writing a good test required a completely different mindset How clean code principles sometimes backfired when applied blindly Why one assertion per test brought clarity instead of overkill The double-edged role of test fixtures in maintaining reliability How naming conventions influenced readability and trust How to identify, rewrite, or retire ineffective tests About the Speaker Abhijit Sonawane Solution Consultant, Sahaj Software Abhijit is a software developer with over a decade of experience spanning backend systems and DevOps. He cares deeply about clean code, modular architecture, effective testing, and strong development practices. Over the years, he has worked across domains including Core Banking, Insurance, Healthcare, and Inventory Management, designing systems that were grounded in real-world business needs. Abhijit believes that software should reflect the domain it serves because the closer the model is to reality, the easier it is to build, evolve, and reason about. 🎥 Watch the full talk to revisit how “passing” tests can still fail and how to build ones that truly stand the test of time.
