Mid From PDF SOLID Design Patterns & SOLID

How can violating LSP cause issues in software design?

Violating LSP can lead to:

  • Unexpected behavior when a subclass does not honor the contract of the base
class.
  • Code that breaks at runtime when substituting a derived class.
  • Tightly coupled code that depends on specific implementations rather than

bstractions.

  • Unit tests failing when testing subclasses in place of base classes.

Essentially, it defeats the purpose of polymorphism.
