Uncle Bob's 3 laws of TDD:

sufficient to fail; and compilation failures are failures.
3. You are not allowed to write any more production code than is
sufficient to pass the one failing unit test.

Your procedure is much more reasonable, but I suspect the latter is more
"principled" TDD, although it is fairly absurd as it implies a complete
lack of understanding or design, and was what I was referring to.
I don't care about Uncle Bob. I say use your common sense.
And, btw, your lexer example of TDD is exactly what I think is wrong
with TDD.
I never write those dummy implementation, I really don't see the point.
