| May 4, 2012 at 12:44 | comment | added | S.Robins | @user606723 The downvote is probably because the OP is asking when it's inappropriate to create unit tests, whereas your answer starts by effectively stating that unit tests don't test much in a complicated system - which is a huge generalization that may be factually incorrect - and ends by effectively stating that unit tests are valuable because they protect a system from functional change - which is not entirely accurate, nor contextually appropriate to the question posted. | |
