In 2010, I was working at a startup and a colleague did a show-and-tell about unit tests. It was my first job, I
had never seen unit tests before, and in all honestly, I completely disliked it. Initially, thought it was a
waste of time. Today in 2024, I have a very unsettling feeling if I end up writing a code without writing tests
first. I have always wondered why I had an allergic reaction at the beginning and why it took me the time it did
to warm up to this practice. So I started to roadmap key milestones I had in the last 14 years and the agents
that brought about this change for me.
