Hi

When doing TDD if there is code that processes data,  that comes from a user - 
e.g. logon information.

Should my code contain tests to check that the information is in the correct 
format etc,  or should I do those checks in my tests?

If I do checks for valid data in my code - do I then need tests that check 
that the code is checking if the user information is of correct format etc.

If I just put all those types of test in my tests only - It would mean that 
when someone runs the program - there are no checks in place to alert a user 
that they have used invalid user information. - Unless the user runs the 
tests before they run the program !

I'm still confused

Thanks

Kingsley
