Documentation should exist only if it is essential and the source code is one of the documentation. This methodology works fine because I usually develop alone or in a small team and the software does not have many modules.
Unit testing is one of those which I thought it's not worth to do. I agree that's it's useful for regression test of the code but I thought I know what I've done with my code and know what are affected.
Around two years ago, I and my colleagues started a new project. One of them wanted to try a kind of Agile development model (I don't know the name. I've said I'm not a fan of these models) and we tried.
He encouraged me to write the unit test for each class and a few acceptance tests for overall project behaviors. I did it because I wanted to give it a try too.
Then I know I was wrong about testing. I usually see some bugs because the tests fail. In addition, I feels great when all the tests go green. The tests guarantee that the software still work as it should. However, I see some disadvantages or difficulties in writing test.
