Testing is good; I like testing. But I've seen people code to implementation details in such a way that things worked fine until the next release of a product, when the implementation changed. I was surprised to see Tom, who is normally such a stickler for doing such things correctly, apparently going the other way this time; but it turns out that he had noted a guarantee in the API that I'd missed. Mystery solved. Perhaps something in the comments would help people avoid making the same mistake I did. -Kevin
