Perhaps it's me, but it doesn't make much sense to write your code  
BEFORE your test. How do you know that the code is operating right if  
you write it before your test?

My suggestion: write your unit tests first, they don't take much  
time, so if you find you need to change things a little, having to  
rewrite one unit test isn't a big loss.
