... Would you say that the tests generated by TDD are specifications of the software that is built? Or does "specification" have more to do with what needs to...
... For what it may be worth, Test First Programming suggests the "write a (failing) test before writing the code to make it pass" part of what we currently...
... I work with those people! I would also add to your observation: people who are nervous about emergent design also resist the idea changing the architecture...
I've been considering TDD for a good while now but I am still unclear on a couple of things that I would be interested in getting your opinions on. Lets say I...
Earlier we were debating NUnit verus NUnitAsp for testing ASP.NET<http://ASP.NET>. Here is an interesting alternative, along with some comparisons: ...
Hi, John, ... Take the first requirement. Tear it into tiny pieces, or (better) tear off the first tiny piece. Write a test that (1) fails; (2) if passed...
... The first bit of (test) code that you write should capture the very essence of the feature that you are adding. When you are done with the first few tests,...

If you're not writing from scratch, you have an extra task ahead of you: if you identify a place where your new code will impact the existing code, you need to...
I call TDD a 'process'. As Anthony Williams stated, TDD is the red-green-refactor cycle, the low-level iterative steps that Agile developers follow. Test, then...
... When I do TDD, I rarely even make an initial list of tests. I think about the first one. (I'm sure there's some speculative thinking going on, but not...

I have been very pleased with the acceptance of TDD. Since 1993 I have been writing tests to verify to me that my code was working as I understood it. My goal...
