Reluctant developers can easily write tests that meet code coverage criteria.

If you don't want to do this yourself, there are plenty of source code hosting sites.
You put your sources in a source code control system, which is properly backed up.

A lot of compiler optimizations with getting a product that works to their employer .
Way to make sure your code is fast is to benchmark or profile it.
