I'm not much of a fan of TDD (test driven development). I do believe that tests can be very useful and sometimes indispensable, but mainly for protecting rather stable library-like software components from regressions. Writing tests before or while building something; no thanks, it will waste too much time on creating tests for code that might morph or disappear any moment.
