We write **unit tests** to explore and confirm the **behavior** of parts of our application.
|
||
|
||
1. They **guard** against breaking existing code (“regressions”) when we make changes.
|
||
1. They **clarify** what the code does both when used as intended and when faced with deviant conditions.
|
||
1. They **reveal** mistakes in design and implementation. Tests force us to look at our code from many angles. When a part of our application seems hard to test, we may have discovered a design flaw, something we can cure now rather than later when it becomes expensive to fix.
