The proprietary test suite for SQLite3 is much much larger still. The battle-testedness comes in great part from that.

Is that where the 10x more lines came from? Writing more "testable" code?
Oh no, SQLite3 is a lot more featureful than SQLite2. The proprietary test suite is what makes SQLite3 so solid.
This makes me wonder. Is anyone practicing TDD with genAI/LLMs? If the true value is in the tests, might as well write those and have the AI slop be the codebase itself. TDD is often criticized for being slow. I'd seriously like to compare one vs the other today. I've also heard people find it challenging to get it to write good tests.
