    Meanwhile I’m very upset our unit test coverage is only 40%.

    Like, it’s the number 1 priority for the principle & staff engineers to get that up to 80% across the codebase.

      And it’s number 1 priority for management to employ as few developers as possible and stretch their team as thinly as possible. Hence still no unit tests in any of the companies I’ve worked at recently, despite everyone knowing they’re worth it, including lip service from management. They just won’t invest in testing, no matter what. One company even fired all the testers then complained to the developers that the product was getting less reliable.
