Testing can be fun, actually
SMRTR summary
Snapshot testing automates test assertion management by capturing function outputs and storing them as reviewable snapshots instead of hardcoded expected values. When outputs change, developers review diffs like version control, accepting or rejecting changes. Examples include CLI help text validation, compiler tooltip positioning in Rust, and mathematical animation functions with visual ASCII representations.
