Best approach to update django project, track updates

Hello Awesome People!

I have a Django project, already hosted. the project contains lots of functionalities. Sometimes, when I update a part of the project, I don't remember where these updates might affect.

Page 1

 line 1: if obj.love_basket:
 line 2:     up.fan = True # as well
 line 3:     up.save()

After months, I want to remove fan attribute and replace it with is_fan

Page 2

 line 4: class UserProfile:
 line 5:     # fan = models.BooleanField()
 line 6:     is_fan = models.BooleanField()

This change will give an error in the future when a user hits line 2
This is just an example.

How will I know where these changes may affect?

Write unit tests! Things like that are an easy catch with a pretty simple unit test.
