Subject: Re: Tools to improve testing

autotest and unit diff (both in ZenTest) are awesome.

The big thing is just procedural -- getting used to it.   I've been
writing some code with Sean Carley, and writing it in a Ping
Pong style has been great.   Sean will write a test, check it
in, and let me know.  Then I need to get his test to pass, write
a new test, check it in and let him know.

Writing code this way has been a blast (it's more like playing a
game than working on a project).  I'm convinced it would be
even more fun if Sean and I were pairing in person instead of
by email.  The comments I've heard from others would seem
to bear this out.

Good luck, and have fun with testing.
