Test Driven Development: By Example by Kent Beck

By Kent Beck

Conveniently, test-driven improvement is intended to do away with worry in software improvement. whereas a few worry is fit (often considered as a judgment of right and wrong that tells programmers to "be careful!"), the writer believes that byproducts of worry comprise tentative, grumpy, and uncommunicative programmers who're not able to take in confident feedback. while programming groups purchase into TDD, they instantly see optimistic effects. They cast off the phobia eager about their jobs, and are larger outfitted to take on the tough demanding situations that face them. TDD removes tentative characteristics, it teaches programmers to speak, and it encourages workforce individuals to find feedback although, even the writer admits that grumpiness needs to be labored out separately! in brief, the basis at the back of TDD is that code can be continuously demonstrated and refactored. Kent Beck teaches programmers through instance, to allow them to painlessly and dramatically elevate the standard in their paintings.
