I most often just get it straight up misunderstanding how the test framework itself works, but I've definitely had it make strange decisions like that. I'm a little convinced that the only reason I put up with it for unit tests is because I would probably not write them otherwise haha.

Oh, I am right there with you. I don't want to write tests because they're tedious, so I backfill with the AI at least starting me off on it. It's a lot easier for me to fix something (even if it turns into a complete rewrite) than to start from a blank file.
