St Pauli School of TDD
Test-driven development is designed to provide regular feedback at intervals of minutes or even seconds as to whether the current software is free of errors. If too much coding is done between when the tests can be run, it will result in a slower development process due to larger issues when the tests are finally able to be run. We often notice that many developers are able to handle the first two or three TDD cycles smoothly, but the subsequent cycles are so slow that it can hardly be called test-driven development. We have therefore developed a new systematic approach that leads to continuous progress in short TDD cycles. Following the two well-known TDD approaches - "Chicago school" and "London school" - we have named this approach the "St. Pauli school of TDD".
