During the last decade, Test-Driven Development (TDD) has been actively discussed in the software engineering community. It has been regarded as a useful and beneficial software development practice as well in industry as in academia. After a decade of active research, there is still very little critical discussion on TDD in the literature. This paper is based on a literature review and it is focused on identifying and introducing critical viewpoints on TDD. First, the current evidence on TDD's benefits is still weak and it includes several issues. Second, the paper presents a number of other possible issues and challenges with TDD that are referred in the literature. Finally, based on the findings, a list of concrete research questions for the future research is presented.
