When you are writing a set of methods for something where you want to get the stuff compiling, but you are not looking to do full TDD, because you are worried you will forget something, then just put assert(False) in the bodies of the methods, to make sure that they will stop the system if they are run before you have the code in them.
Languages that don't have assert() can use something else - a macro that calls exit().
All you want is something that will stop things dead if you forget to fill it in. This is better than log message or output, because you can't forget to make it work
