When given a set of requirements to develop an application, most programmers can knock out something that works eventually, right? But all too soon after come requests for changes, and with those changes come the bugs. Perhaps they start small initially. They may even go completely unnoticed, but over time these small bugs begin to plague your application, and make you want to run away from the project screaming with your arms in the air. Yet it’s not fixing the bugs that’s usually the problem─it’s finding them in the first place. And as we know, a programmer can spend hours, perhaps even days trying to track down a bug that requires one line of code to fix.
