Fast, Reliable Tests. Our tests don’t get in our way. Test-Driven Development. Teams who embrace test-driven development accumulate thousands of tests. The more tests you have, the more important speed and reliability become. With TDD, you run the tests as often as one or two times every minute.

The biggest is Test-Driven Development (TDD) , thanks to Kent Beck and his Xtreme Programming crew. TDD says you write tests before writing any code, because this pushes you to design the code in ways that are testable, with APIs that are usable. TDD is a great design practice. In testing, more isn’t always better.

Automated tests are important. Unfortunately, many automated tests also waste a huge amount of time. The easy, obvious way to write tests is to make broad tests that are automated versions of manual tests. It’s also easy to make poor-quality tests that are hard to read, or end up only testing themselves.
