The Programmer's Paradox

MARCH 16, 2023

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. Some people invented a fun little game called “test driven development” (TDD).

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. A narrow test is focused on a small amount of code. The more tests you have, the more important speed and reliability become.
