Test-Driven Development. You can also use the unit tests as documentation and a safety net. If you’re not sure how something works, change it anyway and see what the tests say. An effective test suite will tell you when your assumptions are wrong. Test-Driven Development.

Neural nets are also inherently stochastic, because GPU calculations around floating point operations are inherently nondeterministic. This means shipping sooner, observing the results, and wrapping your observations back into the development process. Modern applications are dramatically more complex than they were a decade ago.

Because TDD is “test” driven development, people tend to think of TDD as “writing tests first.” In fact, TDD is not a testing activity per se. Unit tests are a very useful by-product of this process. Because of this … Continue reading "Commonly Missing Tests in TDD".

Test-Driven Development. I wanted my new login endpoint to have sociable tests. See “Write Sociable Tests” on p.XX.) Rather than abandon that core idea, I amplified it by making the infrastructure wrappers nullable, which later allowed me to use test-driven development to make a new, cleaner Auth0 login endpoint.

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.

Test-Driven Development. Inside the script, use a compiler or linter to tell you when you make syntax errors, and tests to tell you when you make semantic errors. But you can also run additional tests as a safety net in your deployment script. If it takes between five and ten seconds, it will feel slow.
