I work in Rails and Elixir. Feedback is super fast. I get feedback before I write a line of code. My tests fail, and I get feedback. Then as the day moves on less and less of my tests fail. It's a super awesome feeling seeing green. It is also a great feeling seeing red when something is breaking in production and I manage to replicate it in a test.

If you adopt TDD, your feedback loop is minutes and seconds after you save your files.

I think I'd struggle with the idea "see". I'm a back end dev so for me seeing the json payload is about as much as I see. If I'm asked to make the code do X and return Y when the user passed in Z, then that's where I find bliss.
