No worries, the properly implemented CI/CD pipelines will catch the bad code!
I had a student came into office hours asking why their program got a bad grade. I looked and it didn't actually do anything related to the assignment.
Upon further query, they objected saying that the CI pipeline built it just fine.
So ..yeah... You can write a program that builds and runs, but doesn't do the required tasks, which makes it wrong. This was not a concept they'd figured out yet.
Shouldn't the pipeline have failed unless the functional tests passed?
Until you find out those were also built by a junior using an llm to help 🙃
