I started working on my first non-trivial application and having no test suite started hurting me within a few days. Inconsistencies between my local and Heroku environments just feel like whack-a-mole with no easy insights into where along the commit line they broke. `git push heroku` feels blind as I cross my fingers.

Now I'm in the process of applying tests retroactively which is even more painful. I'm doing this "retro-TDD" process of breaking my app and writing tests until they go green when I fix my app.

I suppose this is a necessary journey to actually practicing TDD.
