From a management standpoint, Test-Driven Development (TDD) can be a difficult sell. It involves a relatively large upfront investment, has no obvious business benefits, and (most important of all) the customer is paying for functionality, not tests.

One of the success factors for Agile and DevOps is developers changing the way they work and adopting practices like Test-Driven Development (TDD). It’s not something that just happens by itself, and many of the “usual” ways of introducing change fail for TDD. By Emily Bache.

In many organizations, automated testing lags behind and becomes a bottleneck for successful continuous delivery. Either tests do not provide enough confidence or companies take a very traditional approach, resulting in releases either introducing substantial risks or becoming costly. These principles tell us our tests should be: Fast.

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, when conducted as a specifying activity, is an aspect of Behavior-Driven Development (BDD). Behavior is what we specify and is what we “drive” into the system using tests. Therefore, when structuring the tests in TDD we can be guided by the language of BDD: Given, When, Then.
