I read some threads focusing on TDD, so I wanted to create one where we can
continue that conversation without being offtopic.
I'd say my two cent about TDD and elementary os development.
In my opinion our current environment is obstile to TDD for serveral reason:
1. Vala doesn't support TDD out

Hi,
Are weseriously having another thread on TDD? ~alourie said in this thread
and very well:
I believe that this has been discussed quite thoroughly already. For now,
TDD as a development philosophy is not really appropriate for the eOS
development. That is not a direct result of tools missing
Sergey,
Autopilot and Unit tests are not the same thing.
In fact, from the same Autopilot documentation:
Autopilot exists at the apex of the “testing pyramid”. It is designed to
test high-level functionality, and complement a solid base of unit and
integration tests. *Using autopilot is not a

the most of the code we write deals with GUI and thus should be tested
using Autopilot.
Even if we do have something to *unit* test, the added complexity, higher
entry barrier and the time spent writing first the unit
Please make your energy useful in more useful ways
Dear TTD proponents, while you keep spending lots of time on writing these

discussion.
We don't need hypothetical examples on hypothetical apps, we want real
examples on real apps.
