To share your thoughts, join the AoAD2 open review mailing list. Test-Driven Development. We produce high-quality code in small, verifiable steps. At best, mistakes lead to code that won’t compile. No wonder, then, that software is buggy. TDD isn’t perfect, of course. Why TDD Works.

In previous posts I discussed that the first leg of emergent design is TDD which provides code quality & sustainability. The essence of agility is … Continue reading "The Third Leg of Emergent Design: Acceptance Test-Driven Development (ATDD)".

To share your thoughts, join the AoAD2 open review mailing list. Collective Code Ownership. Developers. We are all responsible for all our code. But how does that apply to code? Collective code ownership means the team shares responsibility for their code. It’s your code. Mob Programming.

With a name like TEST-driven development you’d expect TDD is mostly about testing. Especially when the end result is tests. In our book Design Patterns Explained we discussed how testability (how easily code can be tested) is an intrinsic property of software and is highly correlated with good design.

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. Rely on Narrow Unit Tests. Details here.

Our industry is in the early days of an explosion in software using LLMs, as well as (separately, but relatedly) a revolution in how engineers write and run code, thanks to generative AI. In theory , all software is debuggable. There is a much longer list of things that make software less than 100% debuggable in practice.

Experiences like these make many developers think about using Behavior-Driven Development (BDD). BDD emphasizes collaboration between developers, testers, and stakeholders to define and deliver software that meets business requirements. For each team member, ask: Are they familiar with BDD or TDD?
