If you are attempting to do Test Driven Development (TDD) or Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) then you should write the tests first, thats part of these approaches to development (hence the driven part of the acronym).
Debating wether a TDD/BDD approach versus a ‘test afterward’ approach is better is a big discussion but there are benefits to each, I will say that you are more likely to actually write tests if you write them before you write the code however.
