There are those that advocate writing a test case that fails, then fixing the code until the test case succeeds, then committing the test case to the test-bed at the same time the code is committed to the tree. With the test-case gating the code. This works well for some thing, but we can't do it universally since some test-cases would be only for 'rogue' hardware, which can't be automatically tested.
