Currently I am working on moving all of our background workers from a framework called Resque to one called Sidekiq. This means a lot of redundant updating of jobs and moving them to different folders. It is really easy to misspell something or move it to the wrong folder and I have actually done it a couple of times and broken things. One thing I have done as I work is each time I break our workers with a silly mistake I then write a nice general test to avoid that mistake again. I have a small test file now of 5 tests that are really good at catching all my stupid mistakes! It has saved me from myself multiple times now :) I guess if you can even protect yourself with a quick automated test that is always the way I go.
