Kent Beck Kent Beck—creator of Extreme Programming and co-author of the Agile Manifesto—reflects on decades of coding, from the birth of TDD to his experiments with AI tools shaping software’s future.

Working with an LLM shifts the emphasis from creation to verification and validation. Perhaps the prompts should adopt the style of #TestDrivenDevelopment, as prescribed by @kentbeck.com .

that awkward moment when I must give the leading AI engine a sophomore year lecture on "test aggressiveness" that should be taught with #TestDrivenDevelopment in the first class in every technical college

for those of you outside the programming world, #ChatGPT is exactly 30 years out of date here

Want to learn how easy #TestDrivenDevelopment can be? Join me at #DevoxxMA at 10:30 in Dhalia to learn how!

@quarkus.io #TDD #DevoxxMA

just died laughing reviewing my own code on Sativa with a nice Chianti. in #TestDrivenDevelopment you factor reality into test cases that don't pass yet. Then you write code to pass the test

so if the test is about the surveying term leg one side of a section...

Can't wait for #DevoxxMA! Super excited to be in Marrakech for the first time! I have 3 (yes, 3!!) talks this week!

I'll be talking about @quarkus.io #SpringBoot @langchain4j.dev #TestDrivenDevelopment

Come find me and say hello!

On 4 𝐚𝐧𝐝 5 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 2025, I’ll be hosting my workshop 𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐥-𝐁𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐝 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭-𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 at the 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐩.

TDD & DDD from the ground up

Next Wednesday, October 15, starting at 18:45 we’re holding the #Meetup "TDD & DDD From The Ground Up by @chrissimon.au" at N26's office.

Alternatively, with Test-Driven Development (TDD), software developers start by writing a small test then write just enough code to make it pass, and iterate — building quality into software from the get-go instead of after the fact. This approach aligns […]

Software developers using traditional methods start out by first writing the code. Only when the work has already been completed do they shift their focus to testing. (1/2)

When naming tests, avoid using technical names of functions/classes. When we encorporate the name of a function into the descriptive name of a test method, and the respective function is later renamed, then the description of the test becomes completely […]

Assertion libraries can be considered as mini-DSL’s that make automated tests more readable. When a team of devs make their choice, they usually judge on API preference. While it’s very important to have readable tests, the API should never be the deciding […]

The best thing about TDD is not necessarily the tests thats we write, but rather the instant feedback that we get from the decisions that we make during coding sessions. Especially when those decisions are related to the design of the system that we're […]

When you use #TestDrivenDevelopment, you write the test cases first, and you name them after the features that you intend them to force you to add to the code.

Test doubles expose design flaws in the code. Developers usually tend to respond to the pain that this induces by blaming test doubles instead of interpreting these signals as an issue with the design. If solitary tests are amplifiers for design flaws, then […]
