Description

Foreword by Kent Beck
 
"The authors of this book have led a revolution in
the craft of programming by controlling the environment in which software
grows.” --Ward Cunningham
 
“At last, a book suffused with code that exposes the
deep symbiosis between TDD and OOD. This one's a keeper.” --Robert C.
Martin
 
“If you want
to be an expert in the state of the art in TDD, you need to understand the
ideas in this book.”--Michael Feathers
 
Test-Driven Development (TDD) is now an established
technique for delivering better software faster. TDD is based on a simple
idea: Write tests for your code before you write the code itself. However,
this "simple" idea takes skill and judgment to do well. Now there's a
practical guide to TDD that takes you beyond the basic concepts. Drawing on a
decade of experience building real-world systems, two TDD pioneers show how to
let tests guide your development and “grow” software that is coherent,
reliable, and maintainable.
 
Steve Freeman and Nat Pryce describe the processes they
use, the design principles they strive to achieve, and some of the tools that
help them get the job done. Through an extended worked example, you’ll learn
how TDD works at multiple levels, using tests to drive the features and the
object-oriented structure of the code, and using Mock Objects to discover and
then describe relationships between objects. Along the way, the book
systematically addresses challenges that development teams encounter with
TDD--from integrating TDD into your processes to testing your most difficult
features. Coverage includes
 
•   Implementing TDD effectively: getting
started, and maintaining your momentum
    throughout the project
•   Creating cleaner, more expressive, more
sustainable code
•   Using tests to stay relentlessly focused
on sustaining quality
•   Understanding how TDD, Mock Objects, and
Object-Oriented Design come together
    in the context of a real software
development project
•   Using Mock Objects to guide
object-oriented designs
•   Succeeding where TDD is difficult:
managing complex test data, and testing persistence
    and
concurrency
