You are seriously underestimating how good something like Opus 5.5 is at testing.

That's what truly convinced me programming was over: it writes better tests, more thoroughly, then any developer.

Can you help me understand what domain and language(s) you are using here?

This really does not match my experience so I'd love to understand what the differences may be.

Was there an existing good test suite? Is this an application built before LLMs?

I'd love to get more info so I can figure out how to get Opus to do this for myself, as I really haven't had this experience.
