>If you're not writing tests as you go, that you run before every commit (or before you move onto the next thing), then what is your standard for putting code into a production repository? It seems to me that that would be the same standard that you would otherwise try to write a test for. Now writing a test isn't necessarily a bad idea, but I think it's important to realise that the test isn't the standard itself, but is itself an implementation.
