Rocky on TDD, with an explanation on how comprehensive testing means writing more test code than real code. "No one actually does this." "I once watched a TDD (and MVC/MVP) presentation. The speaker wrote several pages of code to build and test a presenter that did a bunch of work. Nice stuff, until you realized that all that could have been done in 1-3 lines of code using data binding. I asked him why he did this rather than using data binding. The answer: you can’t test data binding. I’m afraid my jaw dropped. See, I have a wife and kids. I like to get home and spend time with them. If I can write 3 lines of code, or write 3 pages of code that I need to test and debug, I’m going to pick the 3 lines of code every time"
