- Hi, Mickey. I'm wondering if you and I are approaching unit testing from opposite ends.
- I think of a unit test as something that is written first. The test fails, so I write enough code to make it pass; see Test-first development. It sounds like you are talking about writing code first, then making some tests. I'm not sure what that would be for. -- Uncle Ed ( talk) 03:02, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
Seems like a worthy discussion for a more public forum, so I responded on the talk page. The testing challenges are the same whether you're in a TDD environment or not. MickeyWiki ( talk) 19:09, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
