For example, I never said that people need to drop every kind of testing that they do and replace it with QuickNet tests or that QuickNet is a silver bullet that&#039;s going to solve all of your problems.  But it is definitely a very valuable _addition_ to your toolbox and your development process.Pretty much every principle or practice that most of us subscribe to is based on one of the following two goals:
1) create working code with as few problems as possible
2) keep it clean, maintainable and sustainableusing QuickNet is an effective way to find as many bugs as you can... and i really don&#039;t understand why more people don&#039;t see it that way</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>@Bruno</p><p>It&#8217;s not about one-dimensional improvement or dictating a single path.

There are many ways to write better programs.  Dictating a single path leads to hype, not advances.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I agree with ex-reader.
