Test driven development (TDD) is a way to write software by first writing a test and then making it pass. You use the red-green-refactor loop. This method helps you build features or fix bugs with confidence. It focuses on what the system does, not how it does it.
You write tests through public interfaces only. Good tests describe behavior and survive internal changes. Bad tests break when you refactor code. This skill teaches you to avoid those mistakes.
Developers who want clean, reliable code will benefit. It also helps when you need integration tests or want to follow a test first approach. Follow the vertical slice workflow to stay on track.
