Test-driven development (TDD) has been around for more than 20 years. Nearly all of the greats in software underline it as an important and valuable method. Sadly, a lot of developers still don’t do it in practice. . Many people think of TDD as a methodology for testing because of its name.

The most successful software development movement of my lifetime is probably test-driven development or TDD. With TDD, requirements are turned into very specific test cases, then the code is improved so the tests pass. That step is observability driven development.

"Write your unit tests before your code," an adage that every developer knows by heart, in theory, but seldom practices it in reality. Test-Driven Development (TDD) is a novel concept that instructs developers to write unit test cases before writing even a single line of code.

It all has to be very reactive; you keep fiddling with the code until it gets traction. Under those conditions, it doesn’t make sense to cross all the t’s and dot the i’s as the life expectancy of the code is weeks or months. A big problem in development, particularly when a lot of people are introverts, is communication.
