I was an #EE undergrad, when I backed into #CS. This was the age when assembly was the JavaScript of the day and structured programming was the state-of-the-fart. So, it was a jolt, when I first encountered Test-Driven Development #TDD in the early 2000s, thanks to the luminaries like Kent Beck, et al. Brilliant stuff!
But, at the risk of being drawn and quartered, I do say that TDD is a bit of a misnomer and an overstatement. Honestly, answer this: do EEs really create the hardware test suits first, before conducting analysis and design, and do CSs really create the software test suits first, before performing analysis and design?
No, we do not! We analyse the problem, we study the requirements, we search for inspiration in the literature, we sip our tea or coffee, we select a candidate solution, we create a plausible design, we implement a prototype, then we test—yes, THEN, WE TEST—if our wild imaginations have any basis in reality at all.
So, I prefer a more down-to-earth description of TDD, which says, "test early, test often, test as much as practicable", not "test first, because".
