“I’m writing unit tests because I have to. They just confirm that my code works, which I already know. They are tedious to write, and often stop working when I change the implementation of the system. Maintaining unit tests is often difficult and takes a lot […]

AI-Assisted Drupal Module Development Shows Tests and Specifications Drive Outcomes A three-part account of building a Drupal contributed module with AI-assisted workflows concludes that specifications and test suites—not coding tools—determine reliability. Drawing from 14 months of iteration, the final instalment shows how producti...

AI-assisted Drupal module dev highlights role of specs and tests.
Consistent results across tools driven by TDD and validation.
AI acts as execution layer, not decision-maker.

The hidden pearls of TDD AI hype necessitates returning to disciplined engineering foundations like TDD for reliable software.

Amid AI hype, returning to core software engineering disciplines like TDD and XP is essential for building reliable, simple and high-quality technology effectively. Thanks @thoughtworks.com for giving us the opportunity to publish our thoughts

Back to streaming, with notes from yesterday's stream: ted.dev/articles/20...

I chatted about consistency boundaries, missing-event heuristics, and encoding (serializing) events.

The hidden pearls of TDD AI hype necessitates returning to disciplined engineering foundations like TDD for reliable software.

The hidden pearls of TDD is in my opinion a great confirmation that TDD and ATDD are essential practices for successful AI agent software solutions.

Person enters into a relationship as a fabricated and enhanced personality of what they think the other will fancy in the beginning.

They will spend countless hours moulding oneself into that self imposed image, hoping in the end that it was what they wanted.

This is Test Driven Development

Everyone does Test Driven Development wrong How many tests do you write at one time? Just about everyone gets this wrong, especially if you're in the "TDD doesn't work" camp.

Loved Kent Beck's Cannon TDD post. Thank you! Why does TDD still get pushback? #tdd #TestDriven #Software

Behavior-Driven Refactoring: Beyond Arrange-Act-Assert People often ask me if Arrange-Act-Assert (AAA) is the same as Given-When-Then (GWT). On the surface, they look similar. Both give structure to tests. Both help organize thinking. But there’s a fun…

Ever refactor your API and break all your tests? I discovered that starting with Given-When-Then instead of Arrange-Act-Assert gives me freedom to change implementations without touching specs.

AAA locks you to APIs. GWT locks you to behavior.

개발자가 밤에 잘 자는 이유

코드를 짜는 것만큼이나 중요한 것이 코드를 제대로 검증하는 일입니다. 테스트 작성의 기초부터 디버깅 워크플로우, TDD, 그리고 AI 시대의 변화까지, 신뢰할 수 있는 소프트웨어를 만드는 개발자의 핵심 습관을 쉽게 풀어드립니다.

Today my co-worker told the LLM copilot to write a failing test before making a code change. I'm so proud.

We cover unit testing our own mappings, using built-in validators AutoMapper provides, and what we don’t write tests for.

My favorite way to write code in 2026 (on becoming a TDD addict) I’ve hated writing JavaScript tests for pretty my whole career. That thing where you plan a component, write some code, iterate it a whole bunch until it works the way you want… and then write tests that validate that the thing you’ve already validated does in fact do the thing you already know it does? Yea, that sucks. It’s also not what good testing looks like. Today, I write my tests first, and then write my code.
