Introduction to Test Driven Development
“Test Driven Development is a software development process that relies on short cycles of writing test code and making the tests pass by writing production code. I will give an overview of TDD and talk about my own experience using TDD.
We will talk about the reasons code quality decreases over time, and how that process can be prevented by a comprehensive suite of tests. We will discuss the three laws of Test Driven Development – the central discipline of TDD, and the benefits of following these rules: increased quality, reliable low level documentation, decoupled design, and no fear of change.”
