The most successful software development movement of my lifetime is probably test-driven development or TDD. With TDD, requirements are turned into very specific test cases, then the code is improved so the tests pass. That step is observability driven development.

TDD is an Agile Development technique in which developers write test cases before writing the corresponding code for the user story assigned to him. Once the code passes the Acceptance test, the code is then refactored /simplified to be used as production code. Role of QA in TDD.

It reduces the cost of testing and supports keeping long-term, high-development velocities. Test automation is not a project or a one-off—it is part of the development lifecycle and should be seen as its own system that needs to evolve over time as the requirements and system under test change and mature.

But I have a problem with the terminology, and it is: I don’t want observability to drive your development. What is observability-driven development? Observability-driven development implies that you think about observability before you write a line of code. TDD is a great design practice.

This is how the developer story used to go: You do your coding work once, then you ship it to production—only to find out the code (or its dependencies) has security or other vulnerabilities. After all, observability is about understanding systems, which means more than just production. TDD goes platinum.

In software development this can be translated into ‘prevent bugs from ending up in the codebase’. An example of the second category would be test – driven development where a test case is created before any code is developed and the tests need to pass before code can be submitted.
