      <p>This is a quote from a presentation by Diego Aguiar at SymfonyCon that I saw from <a href="https://twitter.com/SymfonyCasts/status/1593551105471938560?t=A8wnRUa0tLbb2q5qLhcQnA">a tweet from SymfonyCasts</a>.</p>

      <p>I haven't seen the rest of the presentation, but I liked this quote and the idea of continuously improving a codebase using automated tests.</p>

      <p>The talk was titled "Advanced Test Driven Development" so I assume that it was focused on ensuring that new functionality also has accompanying tests but it could also apply to existing code.</p>

      <p>A lot of existing code that I've worked on wasn't covered by tests, so going back and writing tests for that code would be beneficial too - even if it's only one test a day. It would help to prevent and uncover existing bugs, enable the code to be refactored and changed without introducing regressions, and make the codebase more maintainable.</p>

      <p>Small changes over time add up.</p>
