Questions?
What it really is about
@alvarobiz - #introTDD
- Clean code that works (Ron Jeffries)
- Predictable way to develop
More in depth
@alvarobiz - #introTDD
Red: implement a failing test
Green: implement a passing test
Refactor: change how but not what
Compare that to test last
@alvarobiz - #introTDD
Implement a feature
Refactor said feature (!)
Create a test for the feature
The test is not passing
@alvarobiz - #introTDD
Debug
Ahh, damn
Fix
Finally :)
Compare that to test last (II)
