Tactics · Dev.to · stat: 483 tests

Vestibule, an open-source RAG ingestion framework built by four AI agents, launches with 483 passing tests but remains completely uninstallable. The creator traces the failure to packaging conflicts and mocked test environments. The repository now runs a clean virtualenv installation on every GitHub pull request.

AI agents write perfect unit tests that fail real-world deployment Teams using AI code generation must test clean-environment installations early to catch integration failures that mocked unit tests miss.
