It speeds up the development in the long run and tends to produce better code. Nowadays, many frameworks have tools that help you create automated tests. So as developers, we need to write and run tests first before writing any new code. We always check what the result of our work is. In web development, we usually open the browser and interact with our application to see how our code behaves. So, a major part of our time goes into testing. The good news is that we may optimize this process. It is possible to write code that does the job instead of us. Sometimes, relying on manual testing is not the best option, because it takes time.
