It always seems to get left to the last minute, then cut because you're out of time, budget, or whatever else. Management wonders why developers can't just "get it right the first time", and developers (especially on large systems) can be taken off-guard when different stakeholders describe different parts of the system.

Test-driven development, , or TDD, is a rapid cycle of testing, coding, and refactoring. Done well, TDD eliminates an entire class of programming errors. When used properly, TDD also helps you improve your design, documents the behavior of your code, enables refactoring, and guards against future mistakes. Why TDD Works.

With TDD, you run the tests as often as one or two times every minute. If they don’t, you won’t be able to get feedback within 1-5 seconds, and that’s crucial for the TDD loop to work effectively. For example, if your code depends on a third-party service, don’t call the service directly from the code that needs it. Here’s how.
