Just looked at a fellow devs code (has 4 years experience). His test rig has the same 5 lines of code, copy pasted in the same file ... 400+ times.

What is the appropriate action to take?

undefined

paste

loop

developer

    You do nothing. You sit back and succeed by focusing on more important tech.

    Does it cause a problem? - > change it
    Does it not cause a problem? - > ignore it

    Review, fix and leave comments about what you've done so if it continues, the higher-ups can see the issues and see that you can do a better job!
    Hello promotion!! :P

    ... I think anonymously moan is the best bet

    Sometimes I copy code for unit tests. I draw the line at copying it more than 399 times though. 🤣🤣🤣😨😨
