Once we've found a seam, we can use it to break dependencies to simplify testing, insert probes to gain observability, and redirect program flow to new modules as part of legacy displacement. Micheal Feathers coined the term “seam” in the context of legacy systems in his book Working Effectively with Legacy Code.

If this is not commonly accepted as part of ‘Done’, you might find automated test cases become a thing at the bottom of your backlog that becomes hard to plan or get budget for. When writing tests, it is good to stick to the F.I.R.S.T principles of testing (popularized by the book Clean Code by Robert C Martin ).

Test-Driven Development. Technically, you can refactor at any time, but unless your IDE has provably-safe refactorings, it’s best to do it when you have a good suite of tests that are all passing. The definitive guide is Martin Fowler’s eponymous book, Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code. Constantly.

With a name like TEST-driven development you’d expect TDD is mostly about testing. Especially when the end result is tests.
