requires that you know what to listen for.
I've seen junior developers write terrible tests. The thing is, to know what a good design looks like require experience. To know that the test was hard or bad requires experience, or at least knowledge of what makes a test good. If you've never seen a good test, you might think the test you wrote was good, and the pain is just normal.
