The next step of the TDD cycle is to refactor your work. This step is often the hardest, because our natural impulse can be to get straight into the next feature. Chasing green, as I like to call it: building more and more functionality is much more exciting. Refactoring, however, is much more zen.
The rule "more haste; less speed" applies to coding, just as in many other areas of life. If you skip the refactoring phase, your code quality will deteriorate. If you develop a habit of skipping refactoring, your code base will soon become difficult to work with.
It takes a lot of personal discipline to consistently refactor, but you will reap the rewards of a code base that remains maintainable as it ages.
Right now, we have some repeated code between our two tests. Let's fix that.
