> minimal viable effort to earn a green check

That's literally the thesis of the Kent Beck book.

I'm not some idiot copy and pasting `expect(true).toEqual(true)`

I add functionality one test at a time. I get satisfaction of knowing it works as specified in the form of an increasing count of green checks.

I don't understand why it would alienate me.
