Testing is best done by someone other than the programmer(s) writing
tests according to the documentation. That way you can thoroughly test
what the code is supposed to do according to the design.
In such a case, not only do you not need a platform - a platform will
generally get in the way of performing the necessary tests.
Some people think they need a platform for everything. That isn't true.
