CODING JAG - Issue 104

Welcome to the 104th edition of Coding Jag brought to you by TestMu AI!👐

Often described as the 'Tester's Nightmare' flaky tests are problematic, slow down progress, and cost a lot of money to fix.

It is not uncommon to come across a flaky test, but some blame constant changes in code and not enough checks to ensure there aren't any bugs. According to others, flakiness is caused by a lack of confidence. But what is the real reason? And can it be attributed solely to flakiness?
