If you're serious about it, you can even write tests first.

Anyway, tests can help you very much while refactoring, and in my experience they are 100% worth the time you invested to write them.

    Very interesting. Tests are definately an area where I need to educate myself. I expect it is a difficult process to incorporate until you see the benefits.
