Abstract

This panel brings together practitioners with extensive experience in agile/XP methodologies to discuss the approaches and benefits of applying TDD. The goal of test driven development (TDD) is clean code that works. The mantra of TDD is: write a test; make it run; and make it right. Open questions exist, for example - how can TDD approaches be applied to databases, GUIs, and distributed systems? What are the quantitative benchmarks that can demonstrate the value of TDD, and what are the best approaches to solve the ubiquitous issues of scalability?
