Microtest TDD is an effective change strategy because it dramatically improves our performance at comprehension, confirmation, and regression detection, all critical factors in handling change quickly & safely. We've covered a lot of ground in considering TDD recently. The five premises, the need for a change strategy, the increasing collaboration, complication, and continuity of modern software, and some high-level less-obvious aspects of the practice itself. I want to put some of these pieces together, and show you how TDD adds up to an effective change strategy.
It doesn't "boil down" very well: as with most conversations around complex systems, the effect is multi-sourced and multi-layered.
This may take us a little while. :)
