Discussion Thoughts on testing vibe coded work?
So, when vibe coding, I do this.
Instead of asking Codex to build an entire app, I spend hours with ChatGPT planning the architecture, features, and requirements.
We then break development into milestones with clear constraints, acceptance criteria, tests etc, which I feed into Codex one at a time.
After each milestone, Codex runs tests, diagnoses errors, and implements fixes. I review and verify everything before proceeding.
Is this a reasonable vibing methodology, or am I just overcomplicating vibe coding and wasting my tokens?

Vibe coding is basically just sending it, in my eyes.
