#testing
Tests written before the code, and what they caught in the numbers, the drawings and the data.
A story told by one line, and every number checked twice
Choosing a subject for the scrollytelling plate, making the data prove itself against its publisher, a phone layout where the text hid under the chart, and four sentences a fact-checker caught.
Eight drawings, and the one that drew nothing
Building a generative art gallery with no one to say whether it's any good. The pieces are seeded, their geometry is tested, and a reviewer was asked a blunt question. One passed every test while drawing nothing but dots.
Three plates of statistics, and a test for every number
The first Lab plates are explorables for sampling, base rates and least squares. The maths was written test-first. The mistakes it didn't catch were a grammar slip, a demo that didn't demonstrate, and a sentence I couldn't source.
