At the very least, wouldn't that depend upon how important that 0.1% of the code is? I mean really, on line if 100,000 can up an entire application.

Once it stops issuing ERROR messages (WARINGS are fine, you can ignore them) you're ready to ship! "Unit" testing is just an Acronym for this process: "yoU Need It Tuesday" "I have no idea what I did, but I'm taking full credit for it." - ThisOldTony AntiTwitter: @DalekDave is now a follower! Re: One more option Amarnath S21-Jun-20 22:36 Amarnath S 21-Jun-20 22:36  Yes, I remember during the good old FORTRAN or C days, they used to say that each subroutine or function is to be tested by giving several valid inputs, and several more invalid inputs, and then the response seen. For example, for a numerical argument, give input within range and at the boundary (for valid inputs), and outside range, one-off inputs, alphanumeric, decimal, integers, negative numbers, etc. (for invalid inputs). Similarly for strings. Faintly remember that it used to be called Equivalence Group Testing. Quite fail-proof. Not sure whether it is still being used.
