Test Driven Development guidelines done right
Remember all the bruhaha a while ago when Microsoft published a document about their concept of Test Driven Development guidelines. We were all up in arms as they tried to define the process to match Visual Studios auto-test-generation and all that and well… it just blew.
So they’ve republished the paper here with all the right stuff. I checked it out and was going over everything in my head, hoping it wouldn’t be another series of blogs telling MS they screwed up again.
Red, green, refactor. Cool.
Write the minimal amount of code to pass. Awesome.
Refactor to design. Superb.
Of course the author is a TDD leader in his own right, so it doesn’t surprise me it’s a mucho-better document than before and now something you can point your kids at. Thanks J!
