> As usual my advice on this is: look at the people who build things you find highly impressive, and study how they did it. This is much more fruitful than reading the output of people who want to spend all day telling you how to program (which leaves very little time for them to build software that is impressive, i.e. they never even test their own ideas!)
"Uncle Bob" Martin has built a lot of impressive things. Most notably FitNesse [1] the service level test framework. He tests his ideas out and is a great teacher.
I've been doing TDD for years thanks to Uncle Bob, Martin Fowler, and Roy Osherove (who have all built impressive things) and I've leveled up as a result. In fact my entire team has leveled up with this simple discipline.
I've yet to meet an anti-TDD zealot who has actually spent a month developing the art of TDD. The detractors tend to be people who write really brittle tests that are a pain to maintain.
