Small idea: “AI” tools can write simple tests for a given function or class. I don’t blindly endorse these tools nor is it a complete solution, but the time save might convince a reluctant developer.
I’ve had the most success patiently arguing the value of tests over time (years). When a bug would’ve been caught by a test, mention it. When someone would’ve moved faster with a test, say something. I haven’t found “I’m right, let me convince you” pushes to be very effective.
