Yeah, the other day a front end dev created a branch in some elixir code. They added a pile of tests, and asked a (new hire) back end dev to finish off the work. The tests were 100% vibe coded. I knew the code well, and after looking realized that the tests could never ever pass. The tests were rubbish. Crap part was, the new BE dev was totally lost for a long time trying to figure out how to make them pass. Vibe killed his afternoon.
