Writing and maintaining robust software requires a safety net that prevents unnoticed regressions. Test-Driven Development (TDD) enforces a process where tests drive the design, ensuring code is written only to satisfy failing, explicit specifications.
Start by drafting a failing test that captures the next planned task slice, then implement the simplest code that makes the test pass.

Test-driven development is a workflow requiring a failing test before implementation. It shields code from regressions by treating tests as living specifications, ensuring code is written only to satisfy explicit, failing specifications.
Start the RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle by drafting a failing test that captures the next planned task slice. Then, implement the simplest code that makes the test pass before refactoring to a cleaner design.
Yes, test-first development is widely applicable to both greenfield and brownfield work. It proves contract behavior, safety checks, and coexistence boundaries across discovery through integration phases.
Use unit testing to drive design when you need deterministic, traceable quality gates and living specifications. Writing tests first enforces the RED-GREEN-REFACTOR discipline to maintain regression protection.
