While going through the Yii book I started my first practical experience with test driven development.

Traditional TDD; Driving your tests from a domain/user story perspective rather than technical perspective. Yet, I believe that not so many developers (including myself) have really acknowledged the messages it conveys. In order to achieve that I've left out a lot of complexity that you'd ordinarily encounter in software development. Oh well, this book (Test-driven development: a practical guide by Dave Astels) is not so new. However, this "simple" idea takes skill and judgment to do well. It ended up being a short and sweet guide to test driven development that I wish I had when learning TDD so I decided to share it. Professional, 2002; Martin Fowler et al, "Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code", Addison-Wesley Professional, 1999; David Astels, "Test Driven Development: A Practical Guide", Prentice Hall PTR, 2003. TDD is based on a simple idea: Write tests for your code before you write the code itself. If you are interested in Acceptance Test-Driven Development, Behavior-Driven Development (BDD), Specification by Example, Agile Acceptance Testing, or Story Testing this is a great place to start.

I have a small issue with the base context class: In my opinion, it hurts readability. Many books have been written on the subject, including books by Kent Beck (Test Driven Development), Johannes Link (Unit Testing in Java), and David Astels (Test Driven Development: A Practical Guide). When this was explained to a group of people that have never even used TDD, their heads nodded and I saw about 30 lightbulbs come on in the room. This is barely a starting point for TDD. The practical “problem” with TDD is that unit tests are code calling code, and therefore for the unit tests to even compile, let alone run, you need the target code to be called within the unit tests to exist in some form. Kent Beck, who popularised TDD and is generally considered the high guru of TDD and XP, wrote that when writing code do two things: Firstly, add a test, get it to fail, and write code to pass the test, and; Second, Remove duplication. Now there's a practical guide to TDD that takes you beyond the basic concepts. The first parts of the series are more theoretical, while as the last part will be fully practical, since we are going to implement some example code using TDD. In particular the following items are noticeably absent from the screencast: Practical value.
