I did not read through all 5k lines one by one. Instead I looked for repeating patterns across the test files and cherry-picked a few scenarios — for example one integration test from the open/close family, one from the rename/link family, and one negative test — and went through those in detail manually. That was enough to satisfy me that the workflow had produced consistent, runnable tests and that the whole pipeline (task → implement → self-review → sub-agent review → fix → second review → commit) was working as intended.</span><br /> +<br /> <h2 style='display: inline' id='measurable-results'>Measurable results</h2><br /> <br /> <span>Here is what one day of autonomous Ampcode work produced:</span><br /> @@ -439,7 +444,7 @@ tasks are in progress, show the next actionable (READY) task: <li>48 Taskwarrior tasks completed</li> <li>47 git commits</li> <li>87 files changed</li> -<li>12,012 lines added, 1,543 removed</li> +<li>~5,000 lines added, ~500 removed</li> <li>18 integration test files</li> <li>15 workload scenario files (one per syscall category)</li> <li>93 test scenarios total (happy-path and negative)</li> |
