Personally I completely disagree with this, I've never found myself randomly changing code in a desperate attempt to get a test to pass.

Maybe it's because I'd been coding for years before I ever tried TDD, but when a test fails, I logically debug the code the same way I would if I wasn't using TDD.

As far as I'm concerned having tests just flags possible errors much quicker, and also gives me more piece of mind that my code isn't gonna be riddled with hidden bugs.
