Back in 2014 I wrote a blog post listing three mistakes often made by folks who are new to test-driven development (TDD). Writing tests for invented requirements. It is also not TDD. Let’s look at an example. So, what did you find when you tried to get the test above to GREEN?

Without knowing the solution, is TDD worth it? I like to use Test-Driven Development (TDD) when coding. However, in some circumstances, TDD is more of a hinderance than a help. Writing tests only makes sense after the solution is viable. Writing tests only makes sense after the solution is viable.

Delivery pipelines and source code management systems help—for example, you can gate pull requests on a failing test. One way to increase the confidence you get from your tests is to have more of them. By improving your system under tests in a way that invites more testing, your testing becomes easier in different ways.

As a great example, Stand-ups always come to mind. A big problem in development, particularly when a lot of people are introverts, is communication. That if you somehow got full coverage in unit tests, then it would find every bug and your quality would be perfect, which is insane. Overall testing is very important.

The reasons we want to make the stories small are plentiful; it’s easier to manage, implement, fix, deploy, and test… just about anything we do as a software development team. For example this: Numbers simulation - less is more! But when it does it sure is valuable.

TDD goes platinum. We’ve been living in a “shift-left” or “shift testing left” world for a while with test-driven development (TDD). TDD is considered the gold standard of shift-left testing for a reason. TDD’s consistency and isolation do not translate well to production.

Test-Driven Development. Technically, you can refactor at any time, but unless your IDE has provably-safe refactorings, it’s best to do it when you have a good suite of tests that are all passing. To illustrate this point, I’ll continue the example started in “A TDD Example” on p.XX. How to Refactor.

An example of the first category would be a team identifying unsolvable issues during refinement , or realizing the value of the feature has diminished. 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.
