Systematic debugging
Finds the root cause before touching code: reproduce, trace back to the source, form one hypothesis at a time, then fix.
What you get
A root cause with the evidence for it, and a fix at the source instead of a patch where the symptom showed.
What I changed, and why I run it
- I dropped the evaluation fixtures and a shell script that ran an unscoped test command.
