"the break even point for an automated tester is when they've run their tests twenty times"...

I find that (at least in early development), when I'm in the zone I refactor several times a day (differnent parts of the system of course). If my break even point is twenty times, I'd never get there. Every refactoring would virtually obliterate all of the previously automated tests.
