“ Although I remain a fan of test driven development, the speculative nature of the time investment is one problem I’ve always had with it. If you fix a bug that no actual user will ever encounter, what have you actually fixed? While there are many other valid reasons to practice TDD, as a pure bug fixing mechanism it’s always seemed far too much like premature optimization for my tastes. I’d much rather spend my time fixing bugs that are problems in practice rather than theory.
