Before we can make the case that microtest TDD is an effective change strategy, there’s a few high-level aspects of it that we need to highlight. We tend to take these for granted in our case, but newcomers won’t already know them. More even than before, geekery seems irrelevant. We’re living the natural outcome of

Microtest Test-Driven Development is a strategy for change. To understand the case, we need to answer two questions: 1) Why have a strategy for change? 2) How does TDD provide one? Let’s take up the first question today. (Before we begin, I remind you of the relative unimportance of geekery to me just now. This

Today it’s microtest TDD’s Value Premise: TDD ships more value faster when that value depends on changing our branching logic safely & quickly. Let’s dig in. Before we start: geekery continues to seem largely irrelevant to me. 1 in 900 Black Americans have died of Covid. They’re still shooting unarmed men & boys in the

When we did our compare & contrast of the working models underpinned by Change-Harvesting theory (CHT) vs Rework Avoidance Theory (RAT), we temporarily sidestepped the specific differences of the implementation part. Let’s drill in on that today. Read the first post here: Change Harvesting vs Rework Avoidance It was quite a sidestep: other than the
