Jan 11, 2019 at 9:35 comment added Theraot In general, stating what you did try in the question in encouraged, consider, for example, that adding what you did you search for would help people searching for the same thing find this question. By the way, if I recall correctly, down votes cannot be retracted unless the post is edited. I wish more people would state why they down vote, in particular when the post is from somebody new to the site... however forcing them to comment would end bad, we gotta live with it. About naming question, when related to code. are on-topic here, you may also find useful english.stackexchange.com
Jan 11, 2019 at 9:20 comment added pascalwhoop 1) agreed, thus the move away from SO. I believe discussing naming is valid and there must be a forum for it. There is no perfect naming but there is definitely a lot of bad ways to name which should be avoided. 2) I've tried to look for "names variables testing" and similar queries but didn't stumble on the ISTQB ressource. 3) Is exactly what I'd like to discuss. It is education to hear several perspectives on this. One dev's code smell is another dev's design pattern
Jan 10, 2019 at 12:38 comment added Theraot In my opinion, the question has a few red flags: 1) the questions about naming, which tend to be opinion based, I'll remind you that naming is hard 2) It can argued that it shows little or no research, 3) what you want to do can read as a code smell - not bad per se - (naming multiple things the same will make it hard to search for them... is there an ulterior motive to keep names consistent, like, for example: copy and paste? that would suggest you should be reusing more code). I did not down vote.
Jan 10, 2019 at 12:34 comment added pascalwhoop Out of curiosity, what was wrong with my question? Is it not appropriate for the SWE community, did I do some formal mistake or are people not happy with it not being posted on SO instead? The reason I went for this community is that this is (1) much more of a taste discussion and (2) not a problem that needs solving. I'm trying to determine not only what the right term (apparently SUT) is but also what the reasons for and against this are.
