RE: Function Opinion

I agree with you David.  I would only test the code that changed or was
added.  The requirement comes from our QA group or sometimes from my
manager.  I think some of it is paranoia resulting from a very serious
bug that made it into production over a year ago.  This exact situation
hasn't happened yet so maybe I'm wrong but based on past experience it
would not surprise me.

If I was as organized as Rich and kept up with the programs I use to
test new modules it might not be a big deal.  To date these tend to be
thrown together without thought to keeping them as formal testing
procedures.  As a result they tend to get discarded after a while.  I
think I see an opportunity for improvement here.
