You are missing the point entirely. It’s actually discussed at length in the article btw if you had bothered reading it.

Regression tests are extremely useful because you don’t want working code to get broken but they are tedious to write. What the author is describing is pretty much how everyone does it if you want anything moderately complex in the test, you just run and then copy-paste. Having something do it for you in a frictionless way is a huge win.

Plus the way the framework works you can still test expected behaviours before writing the code if that’s what you actually want.
