I will read OFC,
I think for me the iterative nature of anything we want to do means having crap tests (consistency first) is a more build with foundations approach for those starting out or unsure what the tests points should be.
When I started to code in the 90's nobody showed me tests; nobody paying me asked for them. It was mid 00's before I realized I had to retro-fit my skills with an essential component.
Of course there's always room for improvement red->green->refactor, people over processes, but the kernel of development has to be testing something, not necessarily testing the right thing. Finding that right thing takes
time and experience. Even then we all often get it wrong 😉
