You are right.
In my opinion tests does not only permit to detect a bug presence, but
also to find in a easier way. In other words: if you run a bad code,
you will see that there is a problem, but it could be not so easy to
identify it.
Tests help in this situation.
And usually most used parts are the most changed (for bugfix, code
refactoring, performance improvement)
and stressed. So new developers would be really aided by a Test Suite
for those parts.
These are the reasons that conduct me to concentrate on most used parts
of code.
But of course I will appreciate every suggestion about this point!
nextgens : Which parts do you think need good testing?
I could consider them important in addition to most
used parts!
Thank you,
