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.

One of the most essential steps of any software development project is testing. But when should software undergo testing? It seems logical to test the project when it is completed. However, the power of the classic test procedure is limited.

Test-Driven Development. No wonder, then, that software is buggy. It’s test-driven development, and it actually delivers these results. Test-driven development, , or TDD, is a rapid cycle of testing, coding, and refactoring. When you’re done, the tests remain.
