  1. Kent Beck

    Creator of extreme programming and test-driven development

    It's when you have this rapid alternation between I do a thing, I learn a thing, I do a thing, I learn a thing, I do a thing, I learn a thing. That's where TDD is really powerful. But it's not a moral decision. It's a practical decision.
