We continued this discussion and the OP actually meant that they write tests first and then use those tests to help them write code.

However what they said was they write code then send that to an LLM to generate tests.

There’s no other way to interpret what they wrote. There’s no way to get “I write tests using plain English and an LLM, then use those tests to help me write code from “I write code, I send that code to an LLM to generate tests, those tests give me a satisfying series of green checks”.

This is a case of the OP writing something that is close to the opposite of what they meant and you can’t reasonably iron man that to get to a stronger position for them.

I get that my wording was too harsh, but I estimated a 50% chance it was actually satire.
