  6. AcceptNegativeTesting Positive testing ensures that the application can function as expected. While it is impossible to create test cases for every possiblescenario,testingforadverseorunexpectedconditions increases your chances of maximising coverage. Rather than ensuring that everything works under normal conditions, negativetestingproducesamorerobustapplicationwithfewer flaws.

This ensures that the code added to solve one issue does not cause another.

  8. Write tests ahead of time and don'trelyonprogrammerstodo it Running tests beforehand, also known as test-driven development has several advantages, including saving time by correcting errors before putting down new code. It also avoids codeduplication,whichisatimethief.Don'tlettheprogrammers writetestsagainsttheirowncodeforthebestresults.Whilethis appears to be the most convenient solution, it introduces a bias that can stymie progress. This move also lacks creativity and the ability to challenge the code in such a way that it is pushed to improve.
