In Test-Driven Development (#TDD), a RED test is only part of the story. Just because a test fails, doesn't mean that you're ready to write code to make it GREEN. Before you write that code, check that the test fails as it is SUPPOSED to fail.
Another stream, another set of notes. So much "new"!
I try out a new design for Projectors, splitting EventConsumer into two pieces. Test-driving shows how it's about design exploration, not just writing tests.

Back to streaming, with notes from yesterday's stream: https://ted.dev/articles/2026/03/23/live-coding-journal-mar-23-2026/
I chatted about consistency boundaries, missing-event heuristics, and encoding (serializing) events.

Finding a failing test 🚨, coming back from the ☕️ break, feels just so ✅ .
- I know where I left off
- I know what to continue with
- I get back into the flow within seconds
- no need to search and analyze the git history
- it 💡 enlightens me and lets me continue where i left off
also when doing hashtag#PHP 😎
The pivotal session that is helping me see a path forward for AI-augmented test-driven development.
(Video is a bit rough 'n' ready, but packed with insights...er, once we got going...)

In fact, tooling hasn’t ever made much of an impact in these areas at all, especially compared to disciplined practice on the part of collaborative knowledge workers. That’s why we’ve invented #UCD, #agile, #TDD... all of these are habits of complexity-tending, and they’re what disposes systems toward producing value, if anything does. 6/7 #AI #software

Developers often see TDD primarily as a testing technique, missing its potential to guide design. @davefarley77 talk showed how shifting focus allows TDD to actively shape software architecture and foster better code structure. It's about using TDD to drive design, not just validate it.

Tempted to get a couple of new cards printed to put into my #TDD Game (https://tdd.cards):
"LLM Wrote Too Much Code" and "LLM Wrote Your Tests"
These would both be "negative" cards in the game. The way to "resolve" those cards would be a "Refactoring" card, or a "Revert".

In fact, I got so into the flow writing the notes that I missed my normal dinner time!
You can catch up on the notes (#EventSourcing, #Java, #TDD) so far:

My physical copy arrives tomorrow! At some point I hope to get your autograph on it. 😊

“#TDD and #BDD aren’t really about testing at all. They’re about feedback loops and thinking clearly about intent before implementation.”
Intent first!
Your project has 2,000 tests—and nobody knows which are #JUnit4. Jean Donato explains how @OpenRewrite and Dependency Analyzer help you migrate safely, step by step.
