Congrats on discovering testing! Getting "test-infected" yielded easily the biggest productivity gain in my career.
However, you've got another big win waiting for you if you'll try something subtly different: write the tests first. Moving to TDD was another large improvement in my overall productivity because it drastically improved the quality of the code I write.
It seemed silly when I first heard of it, but now I won't write code any other way (except for short, exploratory programs). Give it a try!
