Posted on May31st2021 by Matthias Noback@ediar asked me on Twitter if I still think a constructor should not be tested. It depends on the type of object you're working with, so I think it'll be useful to elaborate here. Would you test the constructor of a service that just gets some dependencies injected?

Yes, but in very specific ways, none of which is this one: ("Why do we need to know the user's gender?"

So then you want to write this test: At this point, the test "forces" you to keep track of the is-suspended state somehow, and of course, you'd do that with an object property.
