Recipe for disaster

take:

• 1 Late night
• 2 Cryptic, long and super complex batch files
• 480 LoC of the above
• 1 data-entry-for-tests utility that grew way to big and wacky
• 1 project on CI that either do not build, or fail all tests
• ~12 minutes is the time taking the above project to fail
• 0 lines of error output (until I figured out where to tweak the batch file)
• 2 development environments
• 1 crying baby
• 1 sleeping wife
• 5 hours
• and then finding out that some QA guys do not believe in code reuse.

The end result is:
