Writing developer tests as software is built can provide peace of mind. As the software grows, running the tests can prove that everything still works as the developer envisioned it. But what about the behavior the developer failed to envision? Although verifying a few well-picked scenarios is often enough, experienced developers know bugs can often lurk even in well-tested code, when correct but untested inputs provoke obviously wrong responses. This leads to worry.
