• Improved Software Design with Test-Driven Development (TDD)

  If it's difficult to get software developers to write unit tests, imagine how difficult it can be to get them to write the unit test cases before they write a line of code. That's the principle behind test-driven development (TDD), a practice with roots in Extreme Programming (XP).

• Behavior Driven Development: An Evolution in Testing

  Behavior Driven Development (BDD) is not a revolution in testing, but an evolution in how we software engineers think about program design. BDD was born from the observation that most developers were not realizing the full potential of Test Driven Development (TDD).

• Continuous Quality: Shortening the Development and Test Feedback Loop Beyond Continuous Build

  Zach Nies

  By: Zach Nies

  Agile practices emphasize the value of bringing testing forward in the development process, but has anyone ever explained to you how to actually make that happen? Most likely not, at least from Zach's experience. The fact is most teams lack the process and automation needed to get continuous visibility into the ongoing quality of their software releases.
