 For Mail2Voice Next, we introduced unit tests. Units tests are useful to ensure that every classes/methods/functions behave the way we think they are supposed to. It helps the developers to design their code when writing the tests before coding the actual implementation. It helps the developers verifying that the code still works after modifications. Ultimately, it helps developers to detect regressions in the code. Unit tests are one the first tools to use in Quality Assurance. For Mail2Voice Next, we introduced unit tests.

-MyClass is a very simple class that does two things : incrementing an internal variable and setting an internal text. Nothing special there, isn't it? Why should we care about testing such a trivial code?+MyClass is a very simple class that does two things : incrementing an internal variable and setting an internal text.

-Wait, mistakes are common and even if you are sure of your code, are you sure that no one else won't introduce errors in your code? That, is where unit tests are useful : ensuring your code is correct and will stay correct over time. Saving you a lot of time of debugging in the future.+Wait, mistakes are common and even if you are sure of your code, are you sure that no one else won't introduce errors in your code?
