The comments on the guy's post make the point well enough. He's missing the point. Unit tests are a design activity - not a bug catching activity (though I'd argue that they shine at catching unintended side effect problems).
Also, if I were his boss, I'd wonder why all of his bug catching mechanisms catch bugs *after* his code is released to "millions of people".
