Abstract: 

Fully testing your code has gone from a nice-to-have to a necessity.  Bugs have the potential to lose money, leak important information, and sap a good reputation.

Properly testing code before it reaches a deployed environment saves time, effort, and headaches, and builds a strong degree of resiliency for the code to successfully evolve in the future.

How do you know that your code works if you don't have a way to prove it?

Testing doesn't have to suck.  You just need the right tools to build your proof.  Enter Spock.
