When fixing a bug, do you try to replicate it with a test?

|
When fixing a bug, can you write a new failing test to replicate the bug?
|
|
|

If so, you verify the bug exists, you know when it's fixed (the test passes), and you know you won't introduce the same bug again - otherwise, the new test will fail.
