TDD, Unit Testing and the Mainframe

DevOps.com

OCTOBER 3, 2019

Unit testing is like exercise: Companies know it’s good for you and you should do it, but given their druthers, they’d rather avoid the effort and just get to the benefit. After all, making unit testing a standard practice in a company’s software development process is probably the […]. I wish I could say it’s otherwise.

TDD mistakes 2

Habitable Code

AUGUST 19, 2022

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. We’re doing TDD, but we have no code to test; we have nothing to hang our first test on, so we need to invent something, fast!

James Shore

MARCH 29, 2021

Test-Driven Development. It’s test-driven development, and it actually delivers these results. Test-driven development, , or TDD, is a rapid cycle of testing, coding, and refactoring. Done well, TDD eliminates an entire class of programming errors. TDD isn’t perfect, of course. Why TDD Works.

The Programmer's Paradox

MARCH 16, 2023

We see the same kinda thing with unit testing. Clearly, the best way to test any software is with fully automated ‘system’ testing that is thorough enough that it can be used for full regression testing. So, unit tests are great for ensuring that a few components amongst the whole set, have good quality.

Programming Knowledge

The Programmer's Paradox

JUNE 29, 2009

The debate has ended, and the conclusion is: TDD works. Test Driven Development (TDD) for those that are unfamiliar with it, is more or less a "game" to be played while coding, with a set of three "laws" orienting a programmer's efforts. In this way, step by step the tests and the code gradually get more sophisticated.

Trying out test commit or revert

The idea is pretty simple: The full command then is test && commit || revert. If the tests fail, then the code goes back to the state where the tests last passed.
