> Oops ment to save this as a draft. I have largish code base (roughly 10 million lines) that my company deals with and a much smaller code base (roughly 250 thousand lines) my team deals with. Currently there is no unit test coverage of any of the code. And the code was not wrote to be tested. My main task is to get the code covered.  I was wondering what kind of refactoring strategies would help make this goal attainable?

Hehe. Sorry but you have _A_LOT_OF_WORK_ ahead of you ;)

Go buy Michael Feathers "Working Efficiently with Legacy Code" first
of all. Read it and try to apply his techniques on the code "jungle"
that will be your home for the coming few years.
