Reuse Tests

Make tests that you can use again for different things. It saves time.

Test Early

Start testing while the software is still being made. This helps catch problems early and makes testing faster.

Test Everything

Try to test everything the first time. It saves time compared to adding new tests each time the code changes.

Check Tests Regularly

Every month or so, look over your tests to see if anything is missing or needs to be updated.

Think About Users

Focus on what users will see and do, not just the technical details. This helps find problems that users might notice.

Keep Tests Up-to-Date

Whenever you change the code, make sure to change your tests too. This helps keep everything accurate.
