Why is the post title so click bait when the article only talks about mutation testing which is just a specific testing technique? A lot of testing is still done manually not even automated, it might be possible to automate test suite creation with generative ai and it's already being done in the field but nobody really want tests that might be wrong which is the whole point of testing.

Look, it’s my favourite energy drink Peal Doul!

Joking aside that image is disgusting? Why is it so disgusting?

They wanted to pair their misleading headline and misleading article with a misleading cartoon.

First of all, I don't think so....try asking anything in Python. You'll be faced with errors galore!
