> What about putting in effort into writing extensive test suites Easier said than done. Writing test-suites for a codebase which never had a test-suite is a million times harder than writing a test-suite for new, fresh code. In fact it's probably easier to start over than re-factoring the code to be testable in the first place, but some people might argue that would be a wee bit drastic. So not saying it can't be done, just that it does take a very significant effort. If anyone should still feel like doing something like this, I can very much recommend the following book for advice and morale boost: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0131177052/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0131177052&linkCode=as2&tag=jostekjoni-20 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0131177052/ref=as_li_ss_tl?...
