capturing the rules as tests is a great way to make sure that rules remains true

Capturing the rules as documentation is also a great way to make sure that rules remain true.

Lol just kidding! Documentation ... can you imagine?

Capturing the rules as documentation (especially external documentation like confluence) is a great way to make sure nobody ever reads it. Or even finds it.

Yeah, good luck reading 20+ pages of interlinked rules of what is what, what does what and in what order, then comparing that to how system behaves after your changes

Lol just kidding. No business rules are harder than five lines of text
