This is insane and not acceptable. I for one will quit my work if
this is how it turns out. I am not going to ask somebody to do some
testing for me without having the chance to do it myself either -
step through the code and see what happens and so on.
I don't mind somebody doing tests on code that I intend to contribute
- fair enough. But I need to have a means to do the tests on my own
before giving something out.
