Heard about a contractor who wrote some Salesforce code that had a 75% code coverage requirement, so they incremented a counter like 100 times so they could write fewer tests. (And to be clear that was not in a loop, they incremented the counter like 100 separate times)

in reply to @amypercent's post:
Clearly they were doing an optimization by inlining teh increments, meowf. Branches are among teh most expensive processor directives, so by removing this 100 iteration woop they removed one hundred branches and sped up their code by 100x percent!!!
