The tool either works, or it doesn't. Then you patch what doesn't work so it does work. Heck even the Linux kernel isn't tested. Unit tests are so management can have a good metric to sell code quality. I don't know any time unit test…

My experience: running a unit test is much faster than a manual test. While developing a feature or fixing a bug, it speeds you up overall, in spite of the initial investment in writing the test. As a bonus, you can keep them running permanently, to prevent new bugs or regressions.

Can’t you just record the screen or is there something preventing it?

The DRM (tries to) prevent it. You can also record the HDMI signal, which HDCP is supposed to guard against. But it was cracked even before it was being used/enforced. So now it only serves to create incompatibility issues and bugs for paying users. Even though it has been irrelevant for more than a decade. I guess the reason for why it still exist is because it prevents/hinders legal products to circumvent it, since…

I just want to control the viewing experience, not hoard warez. Effortless rewind, skip filler (car chases, sex), play at x1.25 speed, etc. aka the "Blu-Ray experience". If that means I gotta bypass the DRM and download, so be it. -- Some shows have my complete rapt attention. I'll keenly watch (and rewatch) every single frame. Like Netflix's Maniac. OMG. So frikkin good. (So many other examples.) Other shows, especi…

Who the hell skips car chases? What movie had a car chase that you wanted to skip that made that movie more watchable (this sentence applies to the furious films as well, skipping the chase scenes there gives you the dumbest drama of all time).
