Uncle Bob says he no longer reads the code generated by his AI agents to maintain productivity. Instead, he surrounds them with strict tests and metrics—unit tests, Gherkin tests, QA procedures, mutation testing, coverage—to ensure high confidence in their output.

• Uncle Bob Martin no longer reads code written by his AI agents, treating their output as a black box.
• He relies on a strict testing gauntlet—unit tests, Gherkin tests, QA procedures, mutation testing, and coverage thresholds—to catch problems instead.
• Code that fails any of these checks (e.g., coverage drops or a mutation test breaks) doesn't get merged, letting the test suite act as gatekeeper rather than manual review.
