Test-driven development

Write the failing test, watch it fail for the right reason, write the least code that passes, then refactor.

What you get

New behaviour that arrives with a test that failed without it.

What I changed, and why I run it

  • Wording edits only: names and one cross-reference.
  • TDD
  • testing
  • red green refactor
