So I have this script I had to test with PHPUnit.

I wrote the test hoping to cover every loop holes I could think of. I ran the test only for me to realise that it won't stop testing. What the hell

I removed a couple of test data and everything works fine. inserted them back and git was telling me "stop me nau"

I looked at my script for a loop without a break statement, there is one but I used the return statement so everything should work fine. So I taught.

Oh! I vetted out, there is no incrementor! so condition is never satisfied!

I just saw that silly mistake since morning.


Which Oh! moment makes you look silly? or you've never experience something silly as such...

Oya, confess...

It actually happened in the early hours of today like 2am
Working on a project currently (PHP,MYSQL,BOOTSTRAP,JAVASCRIPT)
There is a section of the project that queries all users ,checks their account balance and updates it

The script is supposed to check certain conditions before updating each users account balance ,if those users dont meet that condition it skips to the next

I created two dummy/demo users in the database ,ran the code
First users account was updated
Second users account no gree update oo
Na im i come dey look code oo ,check while loop everything ,the code was perfectly ok
Ran it again first user updated ,second user still didnt update
Omo na him i turn to mumu , come they thinks say spiritual possession don dey enter code again , cos the code was perfectly ok

After like two hours of frustration looking at just approx 10-15 lines of code

I later noticed and remembered that i set the second user to oppose/disagree with the condition for update(to be sure that the condition was working fine) , that means its actually not supposed to update, and my code was working well all along !!!

Thats the most stupid i have felt in a long time after i solved a simple maths question(in sec school) for 1 week and realized that it was + and - thats was giving me problem when i dey solve complex questions in minutes

wolla!!! Donald3D
