The chance of an invisible magic snaphotting system not invisibly breaking the 'back-to-basics' assumptions is precisely zero, invalidating any tests performed within or by it.

Developing against a known state and always and only testing against that state is easy and has been since approximately always. Not doing it is lazy. Stop guessing, developers, programme!

Could you give me some concrete examples so I can correctly understand you?

You may safely assume nearly-total ignorance on my part.

Concrete examples of what?

And ignorance of what? I don't plan to teach you programming here and now.

You say containers are unnecessary because the problems have been solved.

What problems?

How are they solved?

I'm asking because I'm genuinely interested in understanding what you are trying to say.

Maybe I already know it. Maybe I don't. Right now I have no way to tell.
