TDD is Not About Tests

EuroPython Conference via YouTube

Overview

Discover the true essence of Test-Driven Development (TDD) in this insightful 24-minute conference talk from EuroPython 2015. Explore how TDD goes beyond simply writing tests before code, and learn to leverage tests as a powerful tool for driving development. Transform business requirements into effective tests, allowing code to emerge naturally as a consequence. Understand why neglecting this key aspect can lead to disconnected tests and code, resulting in inefficiencies and difficulties in refactoring. Gain valuable insights into proper TDD implementation, where tests and code seamlessly integrate to fulfill business requirements. Learn how this approach yields minimal, easily amendable, and clean code, alongside effective, focused tests that enable confident refactoring and excellent coverage. Suitable for both novices and intermediate developers, this talk provides practical examples and deep insights to help you immediately benefit from this often misunderstood and underestimated technique.
