In unit testing, what's a unit? Is it a method? Is it a class? Is it a module? No. Let's clarify this once and for all.
In unit testing, a unit isn't an element of structure. In unit testing, a unit is an individually observable element of BEHAVIOR.

BTW I use @mfeathers explanation that "unit tests are tests that run fast" as a possible valid (foundation/element of a) definition of the term unit test.
Stop arguing which element of structure is meant by unit. Unit does not denote an element of structure. It denotes an element of behavior.
And that shouldn't be surprising: Tests are executable specifications of required BEHAVIOR (NOT: STRUCTURE) by example.

Yesterday, I was fighting a pretty nasty bug, all the unit tests passed
I knew there was a corner case not covered by the unit tests but what was it?
Reviewing my assumptions, the key: hw was not exactly sync
Need to test for data 1/

Not aligned, I added new unit test for that assumption, of course the test failed
Now, I just needed to modify the code to make that test pass and not make the rest of the tests fail
The best part, i could work with very small and manageable arrays (instead of the 2GB array) 2/

Once all the tests passed, tested with hardware and everything just worked!
Let's see why this worked:
1) there were 35 unit tests that tested the "happy path" and some corner cases
2) I could confidently modify the code and know I would be alerted if I broke existing code
