Testing and fixing code is really important, but it can be tough to do. It helps make sure that the code works the way it's supposed to.

1. Problems with Testing:

   • Sometimes, complicated paths in the code get missed during tests.
   • Special situations, called edge cases, might be ignored, which can cause surprise problems.

2. Challenges with Refactoring:

   • Changing the code can accidentally create new mistakes, called bugs.
   • It's tricky to make the code better while still keeping it easy to read.

Solutions:

• Use tools that help test the code automatically to find any missed paths.
• Make small changes to the code bit by bit, testing each change to keep everything clear and understandable.

By following this careful method, we can reduce mistakes and make sure the code flows smoothly.
