I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Spolsky's significant bias in this argument:

His company makes bug tracking software!

Of COURSE he wants to cast unit testing in a bad light - done properly, it could put him out of business.

I sincerely doubt anyone who runs a company that makes bug-tracking software loses any sleep about software bugs being eliminated forever.

Regardless of what happens in the software industry, to-do lists ain't going away any time soon.
