Writing code -- TDD style
"The best way that I know how to write code is to shape it from the beginning with tests."
~ Ron Jeffries
The quote was found on Scott Bellware's Webflog:
TDD, Java and the Microsoft Visual Developer
To paraphrase Scott,
"TDD is about coding. You can't drag and drop TDD. Code generation and TDD are largely at odds."
"Don’t think for an instant that the Java people are doing things differently from the .NET people because they face such different challenges. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Java people do things differently because they have a head start on .NET people.
Java developer culture is leading the .NET developer culture in terms of practice maturity. But, we're catching up. Well, in truth, we're catching on - our technologies will take us in subtly different directions, so we're never really gonna meet at the exact same place."
Hehe, don't blame me for plagiarism. I learnt this from my senior, Orangie. Anyhow I'm paraphrasing Scott on the aspect which resonates deeply with my brain. So much so that I'm still shaking of the effects of the reverbrations. ;-)
