More specifically, this is a benefit of putting all unit tests into an automated test suite, and running that test suite all the time during development so it's immediately clear when any of them fails due to a code change. It's not enough to *have* the unit tests, nor is it enough to only run them at certain times. They need to run after every change, so the feedback is immediate and local to the change that was made.
